[Mailman-Users] Mailman 2.1.1 crashing when approving a new member

[Sylvain Langlade]

Hi all,


I'm submitting this again : Mailman 2.1.1 is crashing when the list admin is
approving new subscription(s) via the Web interface. After many tests, we've
found that it may be related to using an hyphen (-) in the list name.

I noticed that this list was the only one that was created with an hyphen.
Removing (again...) and recreating the list from scratch only with
alphabetical characters seem to have solved the problem.

Is it considered a bug or is hyphen forbidden ? Btw, what exactly are
acceptable characters for a list name ?


Thanks in advance.

Sylvain.

Ps : in the original message below, list name was replaced by "mylist"
because I didn't think it could be the problem... sorry about that!
