I've modified mailman on sourceforge as such:
mailman-2.0.5.sf/Mailman/Cgi/admin.py:
#
# mass subscription processing for members category
#
def clean_names(name):
return rfc822.unquote(string.strip(name))
if cgi_info.has_key('subscribees'):
name_text = cgi_info['subscribees'].value
name_text = string.replace(name_text, '\r', '')
names = filter(None, map(clean_names, string.split(name_text, '\n')))
if len(names) > 1:
document.AddItem(Header(1, "<P ALIGN=center>Mass subscribing has been disabled due to abuse</P>"))
document.AddItem("<p><BR><BR>")
document.AddItem("Sorry, but mass subscribing has been disabled due to abuse.")
document.AddItem("<BR>")
document.AddItem("You cannot subscribe more than one address.")
document.AddItem("<P>")
document.AddItem("If you need to migrate a list from another place, you need ")
document.AddItem("to get approval from all your users and submit the list to ")
document.AddItem("the SF staff")
document.AddItem("<P>")
document.AddItem('You can open a support ticket <A HREF="http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?group_id=1&atid=200001&func=add">here</A>')
else:
send_welcome_msg = string.atoi(
cgi_info["send_welcome_msg_to_this_batch"].value)
digest = 0
if not mlist.digestable:
digest = 0
if not mlist.nondigestable:
(...)
Could the maximum number of subscriptions allowed through the web be a
config option in MM 2.1?
Having another config option that would allow submissions to go through
mlist.AddMembers intead of mlist.ApprovedAddMembers would be nice too
(members get auto-added, but they still need to complete the 3rd part of
the 3 way handshake, i.e. answer the mail from mailman, before being
subscribed).
As for having a URL with a hash that would let people confirm the
subscription instead of answering an Email, with their broken mail settings
(line cutting/quoted printable/HTML/whatever), was that something that made
it into MM 2.1?
Thanks,
Marc
