-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi all,
Is anyone here using the mailman packages on a web site managed with cpanel? Unfortunately I have a few sites that are. I thought that it was great that they ran mailman (I know mailman, I thought). The cpanel packages are mailman 2.0.13. The problem is that the cpanel folks patch mailman in various ways to make it fit into a shared hosting setup. One thing they do is tack on the domain to the listname so that one mailman instance can have [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED] The real_name of the list is set to announce_domain1 when you create a list named announce. The name that's displayed in the interface is still just announce, but the URL's all have the _domainX tacked onto them. With me so far? The problem is that they didn't really spend much time polishing their patch. If you try to change the case of a list you get an error: real_name attribute not changed! It must differ from the list's name by case only. This is apparently because the list is really named announce_domain1. But if you enter Announce_domain1 into the Public Name field, it will change it everywhere so that you now see the _domainX part on all of your listinfo pages. Pretty ugly. Anyway, I'm trying to find out where to get a look at the source so I can attempt to fix this for them. Really, I just want it fixed for me, but I doubt the webhost will apply a patch I send them. :) So I want to try and get a better patch into cpanel. Does anyone have suggestions for where to get that info? I've looked around on cpanel.net and don't see any obvious mailman sources. I also don't see anything in their support forums about this. Apparently no one using their mailman package ever tries to change the case of their lists. I'm asking here first because I'm betting that someone on this list is more knowledgeable than anyone I'll get a hold of via the cpanel website.
