• Listen Dev

  • Error replies, and not munging reply-to

    from Hamish Harvey on Feb 10, 2009 10:10 AM 
    Hi,

Thanks for the response on updating the catalog: just the ticket. I
have a list up and running now.

Are error responses/bounces are just sent direct to <list>-manager or
are they processed by listen as well? There is some evidence in the
code of bounce processing, but the headers suggest that bounces are
sent to the list manager.

Am I right in thinking that if I comment out the line that says:

_set_header('Reply-To', self.getValueFor('mailto'))

in mailinglist.py (line 1325) then messages will go out with reply-to
header as set by the sender intact for messages received by email to
the list and without the reply-to header for messages submitted
through the web. Or is there more to it?

Thanks,
Hamish

I think that the messages that get sent to <list>-manager are moderation
type messages, and inquiries sent from users directly. Mailboxer takes
care of the general bounce type processing for listen.

That should be it. It would be nice if this was configurable, because
it's common for people to like one way or the other.

Thanks.

I've just spent a while trying to work this out, but I'm unfamiliar
with a few too many of the moving parts and I've run out of time for
the moment. Archetypes and html check boxes have me confused ...

Thanks,
