Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: (un)subscribing Group: 2.1 (stable) Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: niall shaw (sgpostie) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: List Options change of address accepts mailto: Initial Comment: One of my users changed their subscription address by copying and pasting in List Options, and accidentally included the mailto: protocol. While they received messages at their new address, they were not recognised as subscribers when attempting to send. Testing this, I find that the Mass Subscription page strips mailto: and subscribes the proper address. **The normal deletion tools fail to operate on the invalid address**: Membership list unsub checkbox; Mass Removal page; Command Line remove_members - all fail to remove an address with mailto: remove_members produces the following error for the example address mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]: ----- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/sbin/remove_members", line 186, in ? main() File "/usr/sbin/remove_members", line 176, in main admin_notif, userack) File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py", line 1014, in ApprovedDeleteMember self.removeMember(emailaddr) File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/OldStyleMemberships.py", line 220, in removeMember self.__assertIsMember(member) File "/usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/OldStyleMemberships.py", line 113, in __assertIsMember raise Errors.NotAMemberError, member Mailman.Errors.NotAMemberError: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----- - indicating (I think) that the search function fails because it doesn't include mailto: as part of the address. There *is* a workaround: clone_member -r will delete the invalid address. (Using clone_member without -r successfully creates a new valid subscription, e.g. [EMAIL PROTECTED] - but this then will be deleted by any of the above tools rather than "mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]"!) However, the main problem here is that mailto: is accepted by the List Options page change of address mechanism. Hopefully it would not be too hard to adapt the filtering used on the Mass Subscription page? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=1956393&group_id=103 _______________________________________________ Mailman-coders mailing list [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-coders
