[Mailman-Developers] Injection duplicate removal

2003-07-11 Thread Nigel Metheringham

Occasionally a subscriber on a list has some mail problem which results
in multiple copies being sent out to the list.  Now this is annoying
when it happens to a personal address, when a list address gets bombed
in this way its seriously annoying - and in some cases has been a real
problem for the originator who gets 1000's of messages complaining about
the multiple sendings :-)

Would it be advantageous to have a duplicate filter within Mailman which
maintains a database of the last n messages sent, holding the sender,
subject and a body hash.  Duplicates could then be bounced before list
injection.

This is working round someone elses set of bugs, but could be a useful
list defence mechanism.  However it will not solve the looping mail
problem where a mail gets bigger each time round as something is
prepended/appended to it.

Nigel.

 Ug.  I think forking is too expensive.  What I could imagine would be an
 XMLRPC backend against which you could write a server in your language
 of choice.  Now, whether XMLRPC is more efficient than fork/popen/and
 friends, I don't know, but at least you won't have to worry about funny
 shell escapes and other nonsense.

An XML/SOAP-like interface would be nice!

Listserv supports something it calls 'list exits', which are programs called
in response to significant happenings (a bit of an old and crufty mechanism,
but better than nothing). Their manual documents the 'exit points' they
support. They all look quite obvious, but it might be of some use if
something similar is being planned for Mailman3. Section 5.2 of their
manual:

Fw: [Mailman-Developers] Archive problem

2003-07-11 Thread Marco Antonio Reis Henriques

Hi,

I solved that problem. The interesting thing about this problem was that the
first, second and third messages didn't appear in the archive html
interface, only the following messages (forth, ...). Thanks for anyone that
didn't help me. :-)

Cheers,

Marco
