That doesn't really address my question. That has to do with internationalized email addresses. Granted the listname must be a valid local part of an email address, but that doesn't mean every valid local part has to be a valid list name. In particular, the issue that raises this question is a list name containing a slash. while 'my/l...@example.com' is a legal email address, https://lists.example.com/mailman3/lists/my/list.example.com/ is not a URL which will work in Postorius. > Probably that can wait for when we actually support it :-), but while > you're doing this we should (= I should when life gets sane ;-) make > sure that whatever that restriction is, is encapsulated in one place. I think I've done that in my current MR on this at <https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/merge_requests/248> which implements a [mailman] config setting described in schema.cfg as > # Specify what characters are allowed in list names. Characters outside of > # the class [-_.+=!$*{}~0-9a-z] matched case insensitively are never allowed, > # but this specifies a subset as the only allowable characters. > listname_chars: [-_.0-9a-z] The only questions are whether these are the right sets for the "outside this are not allowed" class and the default listname_chars class. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
