Package: mailman
Version: 1:2.1.23-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable
Dear Maintainer,
Mailman was installed following these instructions under Debian Jessie:
https://alephnull.uk/howto-mailman-debian-jessie-apache-postfix-spamassassin-virtualhost
All worked well. The server was upgraded to Debian Stretch a couple of weeks
ago,
and since then no messages have got through to the mailing lists. No errors or
bounceback
messages are generated. I only became aware of the problem when users
complained that
their lists weren't working anymore. The only evidence I've found is this
snippet from
/var/log/mailman/error:
Aug 21 21:38:32 2017 (1405) Uncaught runner exception: cannot import name
matches_p
Aug 21 21:38:32 2017 (1405) Traceback (most recent call last):

__import__(modname)
File "/var/lib/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/SpamAssassin.py", line 31, in
from Mailman.Handlers.Moderate import matches_p
ImportError: cannot import name matches_p
I've searched the internet for people reporting the same problem and not come
across
anything. Without a better knowledge of the internals of Mailman I can't debug
it
further myself.
Thanks,
Pete
