It appears that this list's acceptable_aliases attribute is a Python list of aliases - ['ali...@domain1', 'ali...@domain2', ...] - instead of a string of aliases separated by newlines - 'ali...@domain1\r\nalias2@domain2\r\n...'. I don't know how this came about, but you may be able to fix it via the web if you can access this list's Privacy options... -> Recipient filters page or via config_list -i or via withlist. >I must add to this that we have a very large number (24000+) of mailing >lists. I'm not sure if that matters, but we've had problems with the >webinterface, which doesn't display the full list of mailing lists. This may be related to the above issue or it may be a different corruption of some lists' attributes. >list_lists works fine though, and it also doesn't seem to matter if I >try this with a list from the top or from the bottom of the "list of lists". > >I'd try to fix this myself but unfortunately I don't speak Python... We can help, but we'd need details such as the actual output and maybe Mailman error log output, although the 'partial' overview listing could be due to timeout or other limits in the web server so check the web server logs too. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
