Good work. It took me quite a bit of effort to figure that one out, even after I knew which bad Debian patch caused it. [...] >Before I do so, or begin to experiment, I thought I would ask if this is a >known problem with a existing solution? It is a known problem caused by another bad Debian patch. See some of the gory details in the post at <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2009-July/066610.html> and related posts. The cure is to replace the debian patch with the one at <http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/revision/1186>. (That URL is currently returning "internal server error". This is generally a temporary Launchpad condition which will correct itself. If you can't get the patch, let me know and I'll send it.) The bad Debian patch takes statements similar to myThreadKey = parent.threadKey + article.date + '-' in five places in pipermail.py and replaces "article.date + '-'" with "article.date + '/' + article.msgid + '-'". The correct fix is to replace "article.date + '/' + article.msgid + '-'" in the Debian patch with "article.date + '.' + str(article.sequence) + '-'". Or, you can go to <http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/annotate/head%3A/Mailman/Archiver/pipermail.py> and look at the 5 groups of one or two lines marked revision 1186. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
