#5106 No raw email link for messages in archive
Closed: Fixed None Opened 8 years ago by mjw.

= bug description =

The elfutils-devel list is mainly used for posting patches and reviewing those patches. The new archive at https://lists.fedorahosted.org/archives/list/elfutils-devel@lists.fedorahosted.org/ however displays messages in an inconvenient way for review and since the messages are slightly mangled the patches posted cannot easily be applied. This makes it hard to point someone at the mailinglist to review or try out a fix.

= bug analysis =

An easily accessible raw view of the mailinglist messages is missing or hard to discover.

= fix recommendation =

Make it easy to discover how to get the original raw message from the mailinglist archive.


As discussed on IRC, there is now a "Download" button that exports archives, threads, and now messages to mbox format. This mbox format has email addresses escaped but should be otherwise usable.

The download button on the message page has just been committed and will be deployed to prod with the next update.

Thanks for reporting.
