Package: mailman Version: 1:2.1.12-1 Severity: normal I am staring at http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-mailman/trunk/debian/contrib/postfix-to-mailman.py and I wonder how that is supposed to handle confirmation cookies. E.g. if I send a mail to <debianbook-announce-confirm+5299708fb6fd4cc585aaf3eae349be004e2b0...@lists.madduck.net>, then postfix passes the entire localpart with $mailbox in argv[2] to the script. There, the script tries to match -confirm at the end, but obviously that doesn't match, and so it looks for the mailing list "debianbook-announce-confirm+5299708fb6fd4cc585aaf3eae349be004e2b085f", which doesn't exist, and returns E_NOUSER. The script needs to deal with cookies for some commands, but it does not.
If someone told me how to pass the cookie into the call to the mailman wrapper /usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm <maillist> then I can provide the python patch. -- .''`. martin f. krafft <[email protected]> Related projects: : :' : proud Debian developer http://debiansystem.info `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck http://vcs-pkg.org `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems
