access via https, some links use http
I'm using mailman 2.0beta4 and I like to use the administrative pages via https rather than via http. It works, no problem with that. But some links in the pages have http://... hardcoded in them, for example, the membership management one. If I want to see next page of subscribed users, using the link gets me back to non-SSL. To use them, now I just paste them in the URL location in the browser and change http to https. Is there anyway those links could use what I am using at that moment, http or https? Could they be relative instead of absolute?

We do this as well. You need to make sure that the default URL or the base URL are set to use the https:// instead. Edit ~mailman/Mailman/Defaults.py and make sure that the https:// is the default URL. Also, if you have pre-existing lists (when the list was accessed via non-ssl (http), you'll have to edit the base URL of the specific list.
You may also have to edit mm_cfg.py (I changed both)

Hmm, I looked into that, but I didn't find a way to distinguish between the list (for which plain http would be sufficient) and the administrative pages!?
Best, Lutz

There's a reasonable chance that the most-recent putback to CVS might resolve some of this; if you're a CVS-leading-edger, try it out. (It was in response to other absolute vs. relative URL problems, but it's revamped a lot of URL calculation stuff.)
