[Mailman-Users] Error decoding authorization cookie.

[Willard Dawson]

Hello,

Thanks for your reply.  I take it, from your reply, that you have not
seen the archives, where this "error decoding authorization cookie"
problem is mentioned in several instances.  I have searched, and so far,
have only found the problem mentioned, never any answer or solution for
fixing it.

I also have the problem.  I don't know how much more detail I can give
you, other than:

I installed 2.0-beta3; I found the "fix" for creating a newlist (I hope
that is fixed in beta4).  After creating a new list, I then tried to do
simple admin tasks.  However, every time, it fails with the error given
above.
