Package: mailman Version: 2.1.9-8 Severity: normal Tags: patch
Mailman appears to create a faulty HTML archive page of any message which has a part with no header (most MIME parts have at least a Content-Type: header, but RFC 2045, section 5.2 suggests that it's not a requirement). Any headerless MIME part is stripped and not displayed. This is discussed upstream here: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=759841&group_id=103&atid=100103 The word is that it's going to be fixed in mailman 2.1.10, though that isn't even in beta yet. The patch against 2.1.9 seems pretty minimal: --- Scrubber.py.orig 2007-11-06 21:15:30.000000000 -0500 +++ Scrubber.py 2007-11-06 21:16:07.000000000 -0500 @@ -342,7 +342,8 @@ text = [] for part in msg.walk(): # TK: bug-id 1099138 and multipart - if not part or part.is_multipart(): + # MAS test payload - if part may fail if there are no headers. + if not part._payload or part.is_multipart(): continue # All parts should be scrubbed to text/plain by now. partctype = part.get_content_type() Thanks for maintaining mailman in debian.
