[Mailman-Users] What is character set of the log files?

2020-05-26 Thread Brett Delmage

Hi!

What is the character set coding for the log files, please?
I'm using MM 2.1.29

I'm asking because a list admin want to view them via a web browser and I 
need to config Apache.


Thanks.

Brett

Basically unknown. For the most part, log files are us-ascii, but some
entries contain user entered data such as names or (malformed) email
addresses that might contain non-ascii and might be encoded in the
character set of the list's preferred language or something else.

I have done this with nothing special in Apache. I just put a symlink to
the respective log(s) in a browser accessible place giving it a .txt
extension, e.g. vette.txt -> /var/lib/mailman/logs/vette.log.
