Hi, pskoli93. We may need to reassign this and have someone else fix it because it's a blocker for the Mailman suite 3.0 release, which we aim to do in about 18 hours.

The bug is still happening as of r235 of Postorius, as tested on Abhilash's test install.

[Sumana Harihareswara (sumanah)]

So it turns out this is because of a bug in one of our dependencies: falcon, the REST layer. Abhilash is going to push upstream to fix the bug. Abhilash, can you link to that?

[Abhilash Raj (raj-abhilash1)]

So, it is already fixed in the upstream trunk. We would probably just wait for an upstream release, instead of fixing this for an older version of falcon.
