(Well, I also don't use a "mailman" in the url -- it's on a lists.* domain name, so there's no need for another element in the url that says that it's a mailing list...) In any case, this: > Changing the GetScriptURL method in Mailman/MailList.py to the > following > > def GetScriptURL(self, scriptname, absolute=0): > return re.sub('/([^/]*$)', '/' + self.internal_name() + r'/\1', > Utils.ScriptURL(scriptname, self.web_page_url, absolute)) > > Seems to work for the admin interface, and will work for more but I > won't guarantee it will work for everything. was the missing bit -- I've actually looked at this function, but couldn't figure out whether it should change, or maybe it's Utils.ScrintURL that should change. Now it's clear -- that this one adds the list name, and your regexp hacks it into the right place ("right" wrt what I want...).

Yeah -- and that was the first thing I did... Only then I became greedy. (But regardless, I think that it's a bad convention to use when "pipermail" doesn't really mean anything to the end users -- unless I'm missing some expression (I'm not a native English speaker).) > >and the <verb>/<list> thing is something that after 5 years of > >moderating about 10 lists I still can't remember.
