Bug Description
someone recently managed to subscribe himself to
the python.org image-sig mailing list, using an add-
ress looking a bit like this one:
prefix#<email address hidden>
unfortunately, the web interface doesn't escape the
"#" character, so the web pages for this user cannot
be accessed:
http://
sig/prefix#
(the browser strips off the "#" and everything after
it before sending the URL to mailman...).
I'm not sure what version python.org is running,
but I suspect that the Barry person might be able
to figure that out.
cheers /F
