You can mass subscribe members with real names. See the FAQ at
.

Also, members can provide a real name when subscribing from the web.

Brian's issue is he want's to see the real name in the 'roster', not
just in the admin membership list.

This was implemented for Mailman 2.2, but that will not be officially
released (see
).

The display of real name in the roster can be added to Mailman 2.1 by
adding three lines to Mailman/HTMLFormatter.py as indicated in the
change at
.

I think the problem is we are using 2.1.14 and not 2.2 which has not 
been released yet.

IIRC, this shows up for me, but only if the person subscribed via 
Email which of course sends the name along with the Email address in 
the From line.  Whether or not it will also allow you to add real 
names if you add users as "Firstname Lastname the various add member screens, I don't know.


All this is to say that the names will show up in the Member Name 
column if Mailman knows it.


What version of Mailman are you using?

Or are you asking about something like list_members?  I'm assuming you 
mean the member list in the web interface.

You can find the necessary small change to Mailman/HTMLFormatter.py at

[Mailman-Users] Real Names on Roster

[Brian Carpenter]

Hello Mailman Community:

What change do I need to make to mailman's configuration to allow real 
names to show up on any lists' roster? I did some searching around and 
did not find an answer. I did read one post that stated that some sort 
of configuration setup that allows for this would be implemented in 2.2.


Thank you for your assistance.
