Yeah, I've seen some weirdness myself in areas like this. The one that hit me was a service provider role account with an unusual (but legal) character in the name tried to post to one of our internal group lists, and I approved that message and also clicked the box to have Mailman automatically add that address to the whitelist. That worked, no problem. However, when I later went to add more addresses to the whitelist, there was nothing I could to get anything accepted -- until I deleted this unusual address. After that, everything worked fine. But I also couldn't re-add this unusual address. There's definitely some bugs in the code to handle the whitelist addresses. I need to file my own bug report on this subject on SourceForge, and I would encourage you to do the same. Maybe then we could get Tokio or Mark to actually find & fix this one. ;) -- Brad Knowles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Consultant & Author LinkedIn Profile: <http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu> Slides from Invited Talks: <http://tinyurl.com/tj6q4> ------------------------------------------------------ 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
