Hi, I'm writing to you about the bug you reported to Debian about Mailman. (http://bugs.debian.org/339095)
I can't reproduce the bug as you describe it, at least the DOS part. In my testing, messages with attachments with an invalid filename: - _do_ get distributed - do _not_ get archived - generate a traceback much like yours - do _not_ DOS the list: subsequent (valid) messages get delivered and archived correctly. The "do not get archived" part is still a bug, one that will (hopefully) be fixed with the next Debian upload. But if they don't DOS the list, it is not a security issue and doesn't warrant a security update to Debian stable. I used exactly the filename you put in your bug report for my testing. If you have a message that DOSes a list, would be so kind as to send it to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and notify us at [EMAIL PROTECTED] ? I fear that the DOSing comes from a different issue than the filename encoding, and in that case I'd like to investigate it. Thank you in advance, -- Lionel Mamane, for the Debian Mailman team -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
