[Mailman-Users] mm 2.1.4 - hit error on user validation for pipermail list archives

[John Dell]

Hi,

I updated to 2.1.4 last month and just noticed an error when I try to
view a private list archive when entering an invalid email address.

If I enter a valid email/password, it loads the archive index.html page
correctly. If I enter a valid email and a bad password I get the correct
authorization failed message.  The problem occurs when I enter an
invalid email address (for example, I entered 'jdell' or 'jdell at bad.dom'
rather than 'jdell at unr.edu').  Here is the error:

Thanks for any help!
John
