Bug Description
Here is my preliminary (brute force) patch to allow
full editing of headers and bodies of messages being
held for approval in Mailman 2.1 (as of beta 5). I
have released versions of this for 1.x and 2.0.x but
wanted to wait until 2.1 was fairly stable before
releasing this one.
You must set HOLD_MESSAGES_
installation's mm_cfg.py for this to work. I may
support pickles in a future version. Personally I
don't see that much performance difference anyway, not
on the held stuff... Also note that if you had
HOLD_MESSAGES_
created a list, you must recreate it after changing
that variable. (Learned the hard way)
This patch overrides the ADMINDB_
setting, so if you have megabyte messages being held,
be ready to wait.
Also - this version doesn't change the request
database, so if you change the Subject: header you
won't see the change reflected in the summary list (but
it will be sent out your way when you Approve).
Happy mailmanning!
