[Mailman-Users] control delivery processes

Hi Mark,

Thanks for all your help but I still have a problem with updating foot_msg attribute.

[root at lion Mailman]# grep -n10 time Handlers/Decorate.py

224-                  # For backwards compatibility
225-                  '_internal_name': mlist.internal_name(),
226-                  'host_name'     : mlist.host_name,
227-                  'web_page_url'  : mlist.web_page_url,
228-                  'description'   : mlist.description,
229-                  'info'          : mlist.info,
230-                  'cgiext'        : mm_cfg.CGIEXT,
231:                  'time'          : time.strftime("%Y/%m"),
232-                  })
233-    if extradict is not None:
234-        d.update(extradict)
235-    # Using $-strings?
236-    if getattr(mlist, 'use_dollar_strings', 0):
237-        template = Utils.to_percent(template)
238-    # Interpolate into the template
239-    try:
240-        text = re.sub(r'(?m)(?<!^--) +(?=\n)', '',
241-                      re.sub(r'\r\n', r'\n', template % d))

I added the ‘time’ variable to the ‘d’ dictionary in Handlers/Decorate.py as you mentioned but I got the following error:
"Warning: The following illegal substitution variables were found in the msg_footer string: time
Your list may not operate properly until you correct this problem. "

Is there anything wrong with this?

Regards,
