Hi,
Mailman currently permits any list 'description' string. It is later inserted
to 'List-Id' header such as:
List-Id: Patches for autoconf, the GNU build system <autoconf-patches.gnu.org>
This header does not comply with RFC2919 and RFC822/RFC2822 as it uses
a forbidden special ','. 'description' is allowed to be only 'phrase' of RFC822.
It would be needed to quote it:
List-Id: "Patches for autoconf, the GNU build system" <autoconf-patches.gnu.org>
Please either forbid 'special' characters such as ',' or quote the header
if such offending character is found.
Regards,
Lace
