Is there a known fix for this issue? It seems like the / in this users
email address is causing problems with accessing the mailman webpages.
thanks,

As documented in the installation instructions, modern sendmails run external
programs through the "sendmail restricted shell" smrsh.
1.
cd /etc/smrsh
ln -s /web/cgi-bin/mailman/man/wrapper wrapper
2.
restart sendmail
3.
Kick your self in the ass for not reading the damn documents before asking the
mailing list.

Yes, really messages longer than a certain limit should be ellipsized;
something like

Headers too. I was hit by a spate of "over 500 aol.com addresses
in the To and Cc headers" recently. No kidding. Over 500.
I thought seriously of murder.
