"From" needs to be escaped in archives

[Roynuj]

Problem:

List archives are stored in the MBOX format,
according to RFC 822 and Unix man pages[1]. Lines
in message bodies starting with the word "From"
need to be correctly escaped/stuffed in the archives
(according to the Unix man pages[1] or RFC2646 §4.
1), so clients importing the messages may correctly
recognize message boundaries. This does not occur
in Mailman MBOX archives.

Please upgrade to Mailman 2.1. This won't be fixed in the
2.0.x line.

[Roynuj (roynuj)]

Is this already fixed in 2.1.x, then?

[Barry Warsaw (barry)]

Yes, in 2.1.3.
