I believe the error message was improved in 2.37 and that this bug can
be closed.

 With this URL, it worked.  I used this earlier, and it failed:
 
   adminurl http://{domain}/mailman/admin/{list}
 
 So I reformulate this request to ask for a better error message, to
 make it easier to figure out what is wrong.

please try this patch, I don't have access to very many servers myself.

Bug#416153: listadmin: Can not handle html for mailman 2.1.9

[Petter Reinholdtsen]

Subject: Please improve error message when adminurl is wrong
Severity: normal
thanks

[Petter Reinholdtse]
 When trying to moderate a list on a mailman 2.1.9 server, listadmin
 dies parsing the HTML code:

This proved to be user error.  I used the wrong admin-URL.  The
correct one is

  adminurl http://{domain}/mailman/admindb/{list}

With this URL, it worked.  I used this earlier, and it failed:

  adminurl http://{domain}/mailman/admin/{list}

So I reformulate this request to ask for a better error message, to
make it easier to figure out what is wrong.

Friendly,

Package: listadmin
Version: 2.36-1
Severity: normal
Tags: upstream

When trying to moderate a list on a mailman 2.1.9 server, listadmin
dies parsing the HTML code:

  % listadmin [EMAIL PROTECTED]
  fetching data for [EMAIL PROTECTED] ... Died at /usr/bin/listadmin line 872.
  %

Please update it to work with newer mailman servers.

CC to upstream, as I suspect this problem need to be addressed there.
