base64 is the default encoding for utf-8 in the Python email library. See <https://docs.python.org/2/library/email.charset.html>. ... > Of course it introduces storage and inode fillup… > => Is there some cron or scheduled code available? To do what? > There's a crontab.in an also one installed by the debian package. Mailman has several scripts in its cron directory which need to be run by cron to provide various functionality. The GNU Mailman distribution includes cron/crontab.in which is intended to be installed as the Mailman user's crontab. Various packages may modify this and may install it as a system rather than a user crontab. > => About translation of the footer, what is the procedure? > I found a huge: > http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/Managing+Translations > http://wiki.list.org/display/DEV/i18nhowto > > I don't know if I will manage to write a human bearable procedure to > install translation as well… The procedure uses Mailman's i18n._() function (an implementation of gettext plus interpolation of variables) to map English strings into their target language translations using a message catalog for the target language. See, e.g., <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gettext>. Basically, the procedure is to code all your strings in English within the i18n._() function. Then in Mailman's messages directory, run make marked.files to add your handler to the list of files that have strings to be translated ... make potfile to update the mailman.pot template file, and finally, just make to msgmerge the mailman.pot with the various message catalogs, or just e.g. msgmerge fr/LC_MESSAGES/mailman.po to do just French. Then you edit the mailman.po to add the translations of the new strings and use msgfmt or Mailman's bin/msgfmt.py to compile the mailman.po into the binary mailman.mo for the target language and install it. Note that if you are thinking about i18n from the point of view of your process being ultimately incorporated into the Mailman distribution, I think your use case is not of sufficient general interest to warrant that. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
