#5135 rawhide/branched compose emails being shunted on devel list
Closed: Fixed Opened by kevin.

Reopen Issue

For some reason mailman3 is shunting emails from the releng user about branched/rawhide composes.

They are going to both test and devel list, and they arrive fine on test, but get shunted on devel:

{{{

Might be some different setting on the two lists?

Hmm, I see a lot of compose message being shunted, but I think that it's because of this issue: https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/issues/176

I'll keep investigating.

I believe I have found the issue, which is https://gitlab.com/mailman/mailman/issues/203. The "approved" rule was not properly protected against unknown charsets, and only activates on lists which have a moderation password set, such as devel.

I have deployed the fix to prod and will check that no other compose messages get shunted. I could unshunt previous messages to get Mailman to process them, but I can't select which ones and there are many messages shunted for other reasons since the install, thus it's likely to create a high load on the server. I'll try to do that when more people are asleep.
