If you are putting these in 2.0.x's bounce_matching_headers list variable, it doesn't matter. Mailman takes the thing before the colon and its trailing whitespace (tabs or spaces) as the header field name to look for and the remainder of the line as the regular expression to compare against. (Which explains the comment in the description that unescaped leading whitespace is stripped from the regex... not that it affects your case.) (For the test cases where you didn't have whitespace separating the subject: and the regex, I'm surprised that you didn't get error messages logged in your Mailman config log.) subject: \[SPAM worked for me on an old 2.0.13 Mailman. (I don't have a 2.0.11 version to play with, but a really quick check of the CVS log suggests there were no relevant changes between those versions.) If you want to track down where its going wrong on your machine, you could sprinkle some syslog() calls in Mailman/MailList.py's parse_matching_header_opt() and HasMatchingHeader(). -- Jim Tittsler http://www.OnJapan.net/ GPG: 0x01159DB6 Python Starship http://Starship.Python.net/crew/jwt/ Mailman IRC irc://irc.freenode.net/#mailman ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
