Here's a sample set of headers:
Exactly what filters are used? header_filter_rules will RFC 2047 decode the headers. mm_cfg.KNOWN_SPAMMERS and bounce_matching_headers do not, but since bounce_matching_headers only holds the message, I'm guessing you aren't using that, and since list owners can't set mm_cfg.KNOWN_SPAMMERS, I'm guessing you aren't using that either. > MM is properly decoding the Subject in the message detail headers, but > not the From address. > > Is there any way to get these get Mailman to properly handle these? If the only issue is the From: or other sender header, Mailman doesn't RFC 2047 decode those in trying to determine if the sender is a member, but what's the issue? If you are trying to match a specific address in discard_these_nonmembers, I see the problem, but you can discard them by setting generic_nonmember_action to discard. If you only want to discard non-member posts with RFC 2047 encoded From:, you could put something like ^[^@]+@[a-z0-9_.]+$ in hold_these_nonmembers to hold the ones that at least don't have base64 encoded From: -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
