I would have thought we'd got this all resolved in the thread that begins at <http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2005-January/042107.html>, but I guess not. >The newlist.txt file has the variable %(emailaddr)s. When a new list is >created, the message that is sent to the list owner includes the literal >text %(emailaddr)s, rather than the actual list address. This is because the only names of this type that are replaced in this template are the ones in the default template. Namely, listname password admin_url listinfo_url requestaddr and siteowner >I would have thought that this would work by default after installation, >but it does not. If you want %(emailaddr)s in the template to be replaced by the list posting address, you need to modify Mailman/Cgi/Create.py as follows: Find this in the module # And send the notice to the list owner. if notify: siteowner = Utils.get_site_email(mlist.host_name, 'owner') text = Utils.maketext( 'newlist.txt', {'listname' : listname, 'password' : password, 'admin_url' : mlist.GetScriptURL('admin', absolute=1), 'listinfo_url': mlist.GetScriptURL('listinfo', absolute=1), 'requestaddr' : mlist.GetRequestEmail(), 'siteowner' : siteowner, }, mlist=mlist) and add one line to it so it becomes # And send the notice to the list owner. if notify: siteowner = Utils.get_site_email(mlist.host_name, 'owner') text = Utils.maketext( 'newlist.txt', {'listname' : listname, 'password' : password, 'admin_url' : mlist.GetScriptURL('admin', absolute=1), 'listinfo_url': mlist.GetScriptURL('listinfo', absolute=1), 'requestaddr' : mlist.GetRequestEmail(), 'emailaddr' : mlist.GetListEmail(), 'siteowner' : siteowner, }, mlist=mlist) -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
