Summary: special characters in realnames
Initial Comment:
Mailman crashs when realnames of members include
special language-specifc characters like german
"Umlaute" (äöüß).
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_members", line 232, in ?
main()
File "/usr/lib/mailman/bin/list_members", line 207, in
main
s = formataddr((name, addr)).encode(enc, 'replace')
UnicodeError: ASCII decoding error: ordinal not in
range(128)
It isn`t possible to get a list of all members of this list with
list_members or a who command.
Mailman has to be able to handle other signs then A-Z
and 0-9 in realnames and mailaddresses.

Hi Barry!
This problem is really old now, I wrote it to you many weeks
ago. It`s a *hugh* daily problem on our server and I really
have to solve this problem and can`t wait any more!
It is a middle-big problem that "who" and "list_members"
doesn`t work, because the listowners aren't able to extract their
own listmembers into a file or a seperate list.
I have over 75.000 users in our mailinglists and there is no
chance to have a working membership-management without
the possibility to extract the membership-lists to work with!
And it is a *hugh* problem, that the daily
heldmessages-reminders to the admins don`t work! The daily
cronjob to send out those reminders dies every day with this
ASCII decoding error. And IT IS a problem, when no
held-messages-reminders are available for a lot of weeks now!
and heldmessage-management isn`t working correctly! We
have to handle about 2000 - 4000 held messages in out lists!
Please: Could you solve this problem in the really near future
and give them a higher precedence?
You know, I`ll help you and I`ll send you all the files you`ll
possible need to debug an dtrace this error!

Using the actual CVS-checkout I still have problems with that.
Because of that a lot of list`s doesn`t work properly and mails
are shunted. Is it pssoible to clear that problem with a fast fix?

I think that the bug is on python itself, because is suppossed that
encode(enc, 'replace') show no errors at all according to
http://www.reportlab.com/i18n/python_unicode_tutorial.html
But is the middle i remove from the code and works ok.
.encode(enc,
'replace')
