There was some discussion recently about using a different subscribeack file for each list. The last word that I saw was a proposed patch, and a comment that the patch didn't seem to actually work.
Turned out that I needed this functionality, and managed to get it to work. Understand that I'm a perl programmer (hey, stop throwing stuff!), and this is the first piece of Python code that I've *ever* read, let alone touched. Still, this seems to work. ~mailman/bin/version says: "Using Mailman version 2.0.9", but I didn't do the install (it's in a verio VPS). Anyway, here's the patch. The one that I got from the list almost worked, this differs in getting the name of the list from self._internal_name and in passing self as a first argument. If you try this and it blows up, I found the stuff in ~mailman/logs/errors to be useful. Hope this help, g. =================================================================== RCS file: Deliverer.py,v retrieving revision 1.1 diff -r1.1 Deliverer.py 49c49 < 'subscribeack.txt', --- > self.specwelcome(self._internal_name), 113a114,122 > > def specwelcome(self, listname): > """Return special welcome file for `listname' if it exists.""" > # If a special subscibeack.txt file exists in the lists home directory > # use that instead of the normal one specified in the templates dir > welcfile = os.path.join(mm_cfg.LIST_DATA_DIR, listname, 'subscribeack.txt') > if not os.path.exists(welcfile): > welcfile = "subscribeack.txt" > return welcfile sjphoto% ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py
