[Mailman-Users] "Members" vs. "Subscribers"

2002-07-16 Thread Bob Weissman
This is a linguistic subtlety in the English version of Mailman. Maliman refers to list subscribers as "members," for example when rejecting a post from a "non-member" to a "members-only" list. This terminology is confusing in some circumstances. Here's why. I run lists for a professional, non

I subscribe to the "SA Talk" list for SpamAssassin discussions in digest mode. When I receive a digest, it shows all the headers in every digested message. So I get loads of List-*, Resent-*, Content-Type, etc., etc. headers in each and every digested message. IMHO, Mailman should remove these

This is eminently doable, but you have to be willing and able to patch Mailman. 1. Patch Mailman to be able to turn off the List-* headers on a per-list basis so you don't confuse your subscribers with instructions that don't work. I can send this patch to anyone who wants it. I haven't figured
