When people on my lists post URL's, they are quite often long and unwieldy ... it would be nice if I could automatically translate those long URI's into shorter versions. On a related note, if those really long FAQ urls from the Mailman wiki are problematic, the wiki actually does generate short URLs for posting to lists. (Click on info from the page to get the short link.)

[Mailman-Users] Automatically creating short URL's?
Folks: Has anyone considered the idea of using one of the URL shortening services (tinyurl.com, etc) to automatically process URI's in messages processed by mailman? When people on my lists post URL's, they are quite often long and unwieldy ... it would be nice if I could automatically translate those long URI's into shorter versions.

Don't recall anyone requesting this specific feature, no. But that doesn't mean they haven't asked for it. Feel free to look on the SourceForge Patch or RFE pages for Mailman to see if this request has already been filed, or if a patch to perform this function has already been uploaded. If not, feel free to file a request via the RFE page, or upload a patch. -- Brad Knowles [EMAIL PROTECTED] LinkedIn Profile: http://tinyurl.com/y8kpxu -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp
