Hi - I've been working on the anti-spam harvest patch to dynamically X out the addresses in the mailman archives via the private.py script, but have been running across an error. After putting in the httpd.conf rewrite rule, I get the error: Private archive file not found This is generated from the patched portion of the private.py script, so it looks like I have the patch applied properly, but the private script can't for some reason locate the archive. Checking the /archives/private directory, the list I'm referencing does indeed appear in there. However, checking the error log in /mailman/logs I see Private archive file not found: /usr/local/mailman/archives/private/list/ What is "list" supposed to be? This /list/ doesn't exist as either a directory or a symlink in the private (or public) archives directory - has mailman been rewritten since this patch came out to no longer use this link/directory? Or have I installed the build or the patch incorrectly? Any insight into my problem? Thanks :o) I have made some progress on this issue, apparently the antispam patch was munging a variable for the list name or URL, and instead of looking for the actual list archive named "clist" I was testing, it looked for "list". It seems to be taking the first letter off the list name, and thus for a list entitled "events" was showing in my error log as Private archive file not found: /usr/local/mailman/archives/private/vents/ Admittedly I can't program much Python, but any idea where I might look for the mangling of this list name in the private.py script (I don't think it's from the rewrite rule the patch had me insert in the httpd.conf file)?
