Re: [Mailman-Users] Fw: Small problem with the framebuilderlist (fwd)

I just checked over RFC822, and it doesn't look as though / is prohibited in addresses. I can see where it would freak out the URL parsing, though. You might try fooling it with %2F instead:
Erik.G.Lund%2FCPH
If that works, we probably have the beginnings of a patch to MailMan...

Yes, after sending the email I also poked around and found that / is a legal character.
Doing the obvious of plugging Erik.G.Lund%2FCPH@manbw.dk into the top level listinfo webpage doesn't work, I'm guess because mailman isn't decoding the %2F back into a / before looking it up in the user database. The error is:
Error Framebuilders has no subscribed addr Erik.G.Lund%2FCPH@manbw.dk.
Going down through the subscriber list and finding the recipient doesn't do any good either. In that case we get: http://www.phred.org/mailman/options/framebuilders/erik.g.lund/cph__at__manb w.dk which is easily changed to: http://www.phred.org/mailman/options/framebuilders/erik.g.lund%2fcph__at__ma nbw.dk
And that returns a 404.
