Re: [Mailman-Users] Footer not being appended to messages in 2.1.10

I figured out what was going on here. This was due to my still using the deprecated Sendmail DELIVERY_MODULE. I switched to SMTPDirect and everything is peachy now. On a related note, is there any plan to possibly fix/rewrite the Sendmail module. The reason I was using it in the first place is because it was much easier in terms of integration with my system since using the sendmail binary for outgoing mail bypasses all the post-queue content filtering and such that goes on on my server. On the flipside, setting up SMTPDirect with postfix was just a matter of adding an smtpd entry in master.cf that only listens on localhost and just permits. However, it would still be nice to *realistically* have an option.

[Mailman-Users] Footer not being appended to messages in 2.1.10
Hello all, I've been running mailman 2.1.10 on FreeBSD 6.2 for quite some time now and I just recently noticed that the default footer (msg_footer) is not being appended to all the messages. Is there something else that needs to be set/enabled to turn this on? I've searched for this problem and I've found nothing so I'm kind of assuming that I'm missing a setting somewhere.

I was using an apache RedirectMatch on the domain to redirect to https from http. This was causing the sign-up requests to be sent via http and then redirected to https and somehow in this transaction, the email was broken. Not sure why that is. But on the bright side, I changed the DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN to 'https://%s/mailman/' and ran fix_url on the mailing list and now everything works perfectly. So, for whatever odd reason, the redirect was breaking email addresses with periods in them. Thanks for the help!

[Mailman-Users] Periods in user email addresses rejected
I just got mailman up and running with Postfix and everything has been working perfectly except when someone tries to subscribe to the list that has a period in the user portion of the address. For example: [EMAIL PROTECTED] It gets rejected as an invalid email address by the web interface. First, is this a setting somewhere that can be changed? I've searched through the administrative settings and can't seem to find it. I've also looked through the FAQs and can't find any reference to this issue. I've tried Google, to no avail. I would imagine that I'm not the first to pose this question... Second, if there isn't an actual setting for this, please point me in the direction of the source file responsible for the (what I assume is an) email address regex so I can change this behavior.
