I'm using mailman 2.1.2 As I recall in the archives of last year there was a post about a patch that could be installed in 2.0 that would allow moderators and admins to modify held posts. I'm wondering if this feature or patch has become a permanent addition to 2.1.2 or if there are plans to include it in the next upgrade?
Also, I am new to Python so excuse the ignorant question, but how does one install a patch? Is there a document somewhere that explains it in layman's terms? And, if I install this patch, will I need to kill and then recreate my mailing list or regenerate it? Finally, I see by reading the archives that one can modify the held posts directly by modifying the file in /mailman/data . I tried this once using BBEdit and FTP and got an error when I tried to approve the post. Any suggestions on the best way to modify a file on the server and what parts of it I should stay away from or what file type it needs to be saved as? - Sorry for so many newbie questions. Thanks in advance for any insight. The modify held posts is a really critical feature for me, so I'd like to get it working.
