2005-08-23The real user name in PKG_USERS does not need to be escaped with doublerillig1-2/+2
backslashes anymore. A single backslash is enough. Changed the definition in all affected packages. For those that are not caught, an additional check is placed into bsd.pkginstall.mk.
2005-06-01Update to 2.1.6. Changes (note: the fix for CAN-2005-0202 was already inbouyer5-119/+155
pkgsrc as patches/patch-ai): Security - Added the ability for Mailman generated passwords (both member and list admin) to be more cryptographically secure. See new configuration variables USER_FRIENDLY_PASSWORDS, MEMBER_PASSWORD_LENGTH, and ADMIN_PASSWORD_LENGTH. Also added a new bin/withlist script called reset_pw.py which can be used to reset all member passwords. Passwords generated by Mailman are now 8 characters by default for members, and 10 characters for list administrators. - A potential cross-site scripting hole in the driver script has been closed. Thanks to Florian Weimer for its discovery. Also, turn STEALTH_MODE on by default. Internationalization - Chinese languages are now supported. They have been moved from 'big5' and 'gb' to 'zh_TW' and 'zh_CN' respectively for compliance to the IANA spec. Note, however, that the character sets were changed from 'Big5' or 'GB2312' to 'UTF-8' to cope with the insufficient codecs support in Python 2.3 and earlier. You may have to install Chinese capable codecs (like CJKCodecs) separately to handle the incoming messages which are in local charsets, or upgrade your Python to 2.4 or newer. Behavior or defaults changes - VERP_PROBES is disabled by default. - bin/withlist can be run without a list name, but only if -i is given. Also, withlist puts the directory it's found in at the end of sys.path, making it easier to run withlist scripts that live in $prefix/bin. - bin/newlist grew two new options: -u/--urlhost and -e/--emailhost which lets the user provide the web and email hostnames for the new mailing list. This is a better way to specify the domain for the list, rather than the old 'mylist@hostname' syntax (which is still supported for backward compatibility, but deprecated). Compatibility - Python 2.4 compatibility issue: time.strftime() became strict about the 'day of year' range. (1078482) New Features - New feature: automatic discards of held messages. List owners can now set how many days to hold the messages in the moderator request queue. cron/checkdb will automatically discard old messages. See the max_days_to_hold variable in the General Options and DEFAULT_MAX_DAYS_TO_HOLD in Defaults.py. This defaults to 0 (i.e. disabled). (790494) - New feature: subject_prefix can be configured to include a sequence number which is taken from the post_id variable. Also, the prefix is always put at the start of the subject, i.e. "[list-name] Re: original subject", if mm_cfg.OLD_STYLE_PREFIXING is set No. The default style is "Re: [list-name]" if numbering is not set, for backward compatibility. If the list owner is using numbering feature by "%d" directive, the new style, "[list-name 123] Re:", is always used. - List owners can now cusomize the non-member rejection notice from admin/<listname>/privacy/sender page. (1107169) - Allow editing of the welcome message from the admin page (1085501). - List owners can now use Scrubber to get the attachments scrubbed (held in the web archive), if the site admin permits it in mm_cfg.py. New variables introduced are SCRUBBER_DONT_USE_ATTACHMENT_FILENAME and SCRUBBER_USE_ATTACHMENT_FILENAME_EXTENSION in Defaults.py for scrubber behavior. (904850) Documentation - Most of the installation instructions have been moved to a latex document. See admin/www/mailman-install/index.html for details. Bug fixes and other patches - Mail-to-news gateway now strips subject prefix off from a response by a mail user if news_prefix_subject_too is not set. - Date and Message-Id headers are added for digests. (1116952) - Improved mail address sanity check. (1030228) - SpamDetect.py now checks attachment header. (1026977) - Filter attachments by filename extensions. (1027882) - Bugs and patches: 955381 (older Python compatibility), 1020102/1013079/ 1020013 (fix spam filter removed), 665569 (newer Postfix bounce detection), 970383 (moderator -1 admin requests pending), 873035 (subject handling in -request mail), 799166/946554 (makefile compatibility), 872068 (add header/footer via unicode), 1032434 (KNOWN_SPAMMERS check for multi-header), 1025372 (empty Cc:), 789015 (fix pipermail URL), 948152 (Out of date link on Docs), 1099138 (Scrubber.py breaks on None part), 1099840/1099840 (deprecated % insertion), 880073/933762 (List-ID RFC compliance), 1090439 (passwd reminder shunted), 1112349 (case insensitivity in acceptable_aliases), 1117618 (Don't Cc for personalized anonymous list), 1190404 (wrong permission after editing html)
2005-05-02RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR is no longer customizable.reed1-1/+2
And always is defined as share/examples/rc.d which was the default before. This rc.d scripts are not automatically added to PLISTs now also. So add to each corresponding PLIST as required. This was discussed on tech-pkg in late January and late April. Todo: remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR uses in MESSAGES and elsewhere and remove the RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR itself.

2005-01-23Build Python with thread support by default and turn the existingrecht1-2/+2
python*-pth packages into meta-packages which will install the non-pth packages. Bump PKGREVISIONs on the non-pth versions to propagate the thread change, but leave the *-pth versions untouched to not affect existing installations. Sync all PYTHON_VERSIONS_AFFECTED lines in package Makefiles.
2004-12-28The default location of the pkgsrc-installed rc.d scripts is nowreed1-2/+2
under share/examples/rc.d. The variable name already was named RCD_SCRIPTS_EXAMPLEDIR. This is from ideas from Greg Woods and others. Also bumped PKGREVISION for all packages using RCD_SCRIPTS mechanism (as requested by wiz).
2004-12-25Change permissions of installed files to match what is required bykim4-5/+25
the software to work. Run "check_perms -f" to make sure permissions are correct (it still fixes a setgid problem with "mail/mailman"). Remove mm_cfg.pyc (compiled copy of mm_cfg.py) always, so the package can be deinstalled cleanly. Closes PR pkg/24041.

2004-01-14Update to 2.1.4, provided by Min Sik Kim in PR pkg/24083.xtraeme4-17/+432
Changes: - Close some cross-site scripting vulnerabilities in the admin pages (CAN-2003-0965). - New languages: Catalan, Croatian, Romanian, Slovenian. - New mm_cfg.py/Defaults.py variable PUBLIC_MBOX which allows the site administrator to disable public access to all the raw list mbox files (this is not a per-list configuration). - Expanded header filter rules under Privacy -> Spam Filters. Now you can specify regular expression matches against any header, with specific actions tied to those matches. - Rework the SMTP error handling in SMTPDirect.py to avoid scoring bounces for all recipients when a permanent error code is returned by the mail server (e.g. because of content restrictions). - Promoted SYNC_AFTER_WRITE to a Default.py/mm_cfg.py variable and make it control syncing on the config.pck file. Also, we always flush and sync message files. - Reduce archive bloat by not storing the HTML body of Article objects in the Pipermail database. A new script bin/rb-archfix was added to clean up older archives. - Proper RFC quoting for List-ID descriptions. - PKGDIR can be passed to the make command in order to specify a different directory to unpack the distutils packages in misc. (SF bug 784700). - Improved logging of the origin of subscription requests. - Misc bugfixes.
2004-01-11Fix PLIST wrt MAILMAN_CGIEXT too.kim2-13/+14
2004-01-11Allow for selecting a different CGI GID than the default pkgsrc APACHE GID.kim1-5/+14
Allow for not using a CGI extension (no extension was the pkgsrc default for the previous mailman version, and forcing to add one seems like just a gratuitous change). Record BUILD_DEFS. (XXX: All these should be documented, too.)
2003-12-23Update to 2.1.3 from pkgsrc-wip via Todd Vierling. This also closesxtraeme12-497/+1590
PR pkg/22820. Changes: - Closed a cross-site scripting exploit in the create cgi script. - Improvements in the performance of the bounce processor. Now, instead of processing each bounce immediately (which can cause severe lock contention), bounce events are queued. Every 15 minutes by default, the queued bounce events are processed en masse, on a list-per-list basis, so that each list only needs to be locked once. - When some or all of a message's recipients have temporary delivery failures, the message is moved to a "retry" queue. This queue wakes up occasionally and moves the file back to the outgoing queue for attempted redelivery. This should fix most observed OutgoingRunner 100% cpu consumption, especially for bounces to local recipients when using the Postfix MTA. - Optional support for fsync()'ing qfile data after writing. Under some catastrophic system failures (e.g. power lose), it would be possible to lose messages because the data wasn't sync'd to disk. By setting SYNC_AFTER_WRITE to True in Mailman/Queue/Switchboard.py, you can force Mailman to fsync() queue files after flushing them. The benefits are debatable for most operating environments, and you must ensure that your Python has the os.fsync() function defined before enabling this feature (it isn't, even on all Unix-like operating systems). And more... please review Changelog to see a complete list of changes.

2003-01-28Instead of including bsd.pkg.install.mk directly in a package Makefile,jlam1-2/+2
have it be automatically included by bsd.pkg.mk if USE_PKGINSTALL is set to "YES". This enforces the requirement that bsd.pkg.install.mk be included at the end of a package Makefile. Idea suggested by Julio M. Merino Vidal <jmmv at menta.net>.

Maiman is a e-mail list manager. It includes a web interface for management from a user (subscribe/unsuscribe) and administrator point of view, as well as the traditionnal command-though-emails management. It also offers web-browsable mailing-list archives.
