Category: bounce detection Group: 2.0.x Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Dan Harkless (dan_harkless) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Rejected mail not bounced back to poster Initial Comment: Howdy. First off, forgive me if "bounce detection" isn't the right category for this -- it was the closest thing I could find. Also, since I'm not a Mailman administrator, I'm unaware whether this might be a configuration problem rather than a bug, but the list admin said it was the latter, so I'm reporting it as such. The version reported in X-Mailman-Version is "2.0.9- sf.net". The problem is that when messages are rejected, the text of the message isn't bounced back to the poster. This means that for people like me, who don't save copies of _all_ outgoing mail (I especially don't for mailing list posts, since I expect to get a copy from the list), the message has to be re-composed from memory when it's re-posted (with a fix for whatever caused it to be rejected). The text of the original email should ALWAYS be included in bounce/reject messages. This is just standard established email system behavior, going back decades. In my particular case, I got a "Your message to <list> awaits moderator approval" message, saying that the "Message has a suspicious header", and then a "Request to mailing list <list> rejected", explaining that the problem was the "Content-Type: multipart/mixed". I had done a MIME-based forward of a message from another list, rather than doing a plain-text forward. Neither of those messages included the text of my original mail. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=589913&group_id=103 _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman-21/listinfo/mailman-developers
