Dear Mailman developers,
A user ("ADBONT at ...", cc'ed) who wanted to subscribe to one of
our mailing lists received a
>> Bug in Mailman version 2.1.4
>>
>> We're sorry, we hit a bug!
and sent me the full message, I've found the same message in
mailman's data/logs/error file,
and append it below.
Note that this is quite an active mailing list,
---> https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/bioconductor/
and many people do subscribe and unsubscribe successfully both
through the web and the email interface.
Though -- I've got reports more than once that subscription
through the web interface produced a "you are subscribed ...."
confirmation (web) and welcome email and the person was *not*
subscribed after all.
That is really another problem, but maybe related...
Note that our setup is a bit non-standard maybe:
Web server ("hubble") is Redhat9
Mail server ("hypatia") is Solaris 8 -- mailman installed on both
Many thanks for mailman,
and for your consideration of this report.
