That "bug" was fixed in Mailman 2.1.23 released over a year ago (27-Aug-2016). Any 2.1.23 or later Mailman should have this feature. > Or a foolproof step by step instruction to fix it ? Nothing is foolproof ;) The actual patch is at <http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~mailman-coders/mailman/2.1/revision/1649>. To apply it in an older Mailman, go to that link and click the "download diff" link to obtain the actual patch. To apply the patch to an installed Mailman, change the first 3 lines from === modified file 'Mailman/Defaults.py.in' --- Mailman/Defaults.py.in 2016-04-21 15:01:01 +0000 +++ Mailman/Defaults.py.in 2016-05-06 21:44:28 +0000 to === modified file 'Mailman/Defaults.py' --- Mailman/Defaults.py 2016-04-21 15:01:01 +0000 +++ Mailman/Defaults.py 2016-05-06 21:44:28 +0000 I.e. change Defaults.py.in to Defaults.py and delete the lines beginning with === modified file 'NEWS' --- NEWS 2016-05-05 01:27:19 +0000 +++ NEWS 2016-05-06 21:44:28 +0000 Then, if you don't know how to apply the resulting patch, you probably shouldn't be doing it, but with the modified patch in a file, cd to the directory containing the Mailman/ directory and do patch -p0 < /the/file/containing/the/patch You will then have to set things like SMTP_AUTH, SMTP_USER, SMTP_PASSWD, SMTP_USE_TLS, SMTPHOST and SMTPPORT in mm_cfg.py. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
