Topic regexes are never applied

[Jkeating-redhat]

Topic filters are checked via a provided regex. The
code that applies regexes to a message, and tags a
message with a topic and adds a header is called
Tagger.process. This function is only called by a
test/ script, to test the code path. In the production
code Tagger.process is never called, so a mail is never
checked/tagged with a topic, and thus when later
checked for who it should be delivered to based on
topic, it has no topic so it doesn't get delivered
correctly.

This is 2.1.8.

Upon closer looking, it would seem that this could be called
through a pipeline. I'm looking in our config to see if we
haven't defined this as a pipeline.

[Mark Sapiro (msapiro)]

Yes, Tagger is in GLOBAL_PIPELINE, so unless you have
redefined GLOBAL_PIPELINE in mm_cfg.py to not include Tagger
or the list has a pipeline attribute defined (default lists
don't) that doesn't include Tagger,
Mailman.Handlers.Tagger.process() is called by
IncomingRunner in processing the message through the pipeline.

This Tracker item was closed automatically by the system. It was
previously set to a Pending status, and the original submitter
did not respond within 14 days (the time period specified by
the administrator of this Tracker).

[Mark Sapiro (msapiro)]

Original problem was due to submitter not recognizing that
topic regexps are compiled in VERBOSE mode requiring
escaping of significant white space. This 'gotcha' is
planned to be addressed in the next release.
