Greetings, I've been trying to answer this question by researching on the list archives, web, and code itself, but haven't been able to find the answer.
Question: How do you remove the -owner obfucation of the owner's address from the page footers? Actions taken: Modified Default.py's 'DEFAULT_OBSCURE_ADDRESSES' to 'No' - Result: no discernable change Background: Currently, there is a list on a machine that I administrate. (debian packaged mailman 2.1.3) The list owner desires that when the 'burmese at furrynevada.org' text is clicked that instead of sending it to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' it goes directly to '[EMAIL PROTECTED]'. At first, I said this is silly, he's just being irrational. All the mailman lists do it with the -owner link, don't they? There are ALOT of mailman lists out there. So I scanned a sample to find out if my presumption was true. Sadly, its not. I found several that are displaying as my boss wants his to. http://lists.essential.org/mailman/listinfo/am-info http://lists.apple.com/mailman/listinfo/security-announce/ (version 2.0.13) http://lists.netsys.com/mailman/listinfo/full-disclosure http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf (version 2.0) http://lists.essential.org/mailman/listinfo/corp-focus https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/k12osn So a variety of versions displaying exactly what I want to say is impossible. :/ On the upside, the ones that say what version are lower versions than mine. I looked into the code, and from what it appeared to be doing was substituting into a template eventually utilizing a GetListAddress(owner) function that never could return anything but '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' per the formatting string. Huh. Thoughts? Do I get to tell my boss NO, YOU CAN'T DO THAT! (I love doing that) or do I have to say, "you're right, it could be done and I've fixed it". (I hate that.)
