[Mailman-Users] Messages don't getting distributed (2.1.6)
Hi, I have a 2.1.6 installation with many mailing lists. In one of them messages are not getting distributed. Looking through the archives, it seems that I might be hitting a malformed mime message (http://msgs.securepoint.com/cgi-bin/get/mailman-users-0506/48.html). That post says that the problem is corrected in 2.1.6, so I'm not sure it is the same (I'm using python-2.3.4). What I see is: --- LOG --- Jun 30 11:34:33 2005 (86236) Uncaught runner exception: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xf3 in position 163: ordinal not in range(128) Jun 30 11:34:33 2005 (86236) Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py, line 111, in _oneloop self._onefile(msg, msgdata) File /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/Runner.py, line 167, in _onefile keepqueued = self._dispose(mlist, msg, msgdata) File /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Queue/OutgoingRunner.py, line 73, in _dispose self._func(mlist, msg, msgdata) File /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/SMTPDirect.py, line 131, in process Decorate.process(mlist, msg, msgdata) File /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/Decorate.py, line 98, in process uheader = unicode(header, lcset) UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xf3 in position 163: ordinal not in range(128) Jun 30 11:34:33 2005 (86236) SHUNTING: 1120142006.933392+7403da4cb4ccf9c0434b639a8b249c8b942c90f2A --- LOG --- The message looks like: --- MSG --- From: To: LIST Subject: SUBJECT Date: Thu, 30 Jun 2005 11:33:03 -0300 User-Agent: KMail/1.6.2 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Disposition: inline Organization: XXX Content-Type: text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Message-Id: [EMAIL PROTECTED] English text, except for the portuguese words: atualização bibliográfica saudações --- MSG --- Any ideas?

Re: [Mailman-Users] footer (fwd)
After asking I found it my self. The very withlist script that sets the value adds the field. Thanks for all the help. I'll post the results when I'm done, so others can use it if desired. Regards.

Remember the thread about getting external footers? Here is where I got stuck. The only remaining issue is how to add an attribute to existing mailing lists. Any ideas? Thanks!

I also added: self.external_footer = '' in MailList.py:InitVars() and d['external_footer'] = mlist.external_footer in Handlers/Decorate.py:process() (line 38). I can set the footer with 'withlist', but the problem is that previous lists don't have the external_footer field so they blow with: File /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/MailList.py, line 130, in __getattr__ raise AttributeError, name AttributeError: external_footer How do I add the new attribute to the existing lists?

Re: [Mailman-Users] footer
En un mensaje anterior, Jon Carnes escribió: Forgive my lack of exact language. To be more precise, you can turn on personalization for a list using the Web-Admin. Once you do that certain other features become available and you can then edit the Footer (using the Web-Admin) and put in variables that will be recognized and replaced by Mailman with things like the persons email address, the list name, the admin address, etc. There is no need to know anything except the names of the variables to use in the footer. Sorry to be insistant, but this is not what I need. I don't need a different footer for each subscriber. I need a different footer for each post, but the same to all subscribers. I realize that I gain some extra footer variables if I turn personalization on, but fail to see how any of them relate to including the output from an external commands. Think about including the fortune output in the footer, for example. Thanks again! Fernando P.

Think about including the fortune output in the footer, for example. Put a wrapper around the aliases, for example: [EMAIL PROTECTED] |/usr/bin/mywrapper|/home/mailman/mail/mailman post list-name Then the script mywrapper could be like this: #!/bin/bash while read line do echo $line done fortune=`/usr/games/fortune` echo -- echo $fortune Thanks for your idea an script. I've allready thought of that, but, as you mentioned, it is only good for plain text post, but breaks MIME ones, so it is not good enough. Thanks anyway! Fernando P.

Or you could do a more direct brutal This is good enough for me. I will look into it. Also, I can call the set-footer program from aliases, so it is fired everytime somebody mails the list! If I come up with something tidy, I like to contrib it back. What is the standard way to do that? Thanks! Fernando P.

En un mensaje anterior, Jon Carnes escribió: It's Open Source - so there is always a way :-) Without hacking the source, I mean :-) In this case Barry made it easy for you. If you turn on personalization then you can include certain elements in the footer (as is denoted by the messages from thi list which indicate your individual email address) But I mean, is there a standard way? Something like `command` maybe? (I'm not a python guy, so maybe I have to do some research in that direction.) TIA! Fernando P.

[Mailman-Users] Two questions: external headers and moderation
Hi, First of all forgive if this message is inappropiate for the charter (too technical). Is my first post, and I haven't found the answers in the archive. To the point: a) I have a 'sponsored' list and need to include some random footers in the posts. Is there a way to include external commands' output there? b) Some of my moderated lists have quite a lot of traffic, but most of the posts turn out to be Ok. I though email based moderation would ease things on the moderator. It turns out that the confirm/deny message comes as a MIME attachment and his MUA (Kmail, BTW) treats it as 'read-only', so he can't reply to it. To make things worst, Kmail wouldn't allow him to cutpaste the Subject line of the attachment also... :( I know it is a MUA's bug, but I'm trying to find a workaround to it. Is there some way to have this info in the message body or something? Also, I was expecting to have some approve/deny mechanism that wouldn't involve sending the password in clear text. Is this planned for some future release? Thanks in advance for any help. Fernando P.
