The emails comes from Mailman that have this text base64 encoded, and the last line doesn't end with a linefeed, e.g. LS0gCnNpZzAKc2lnMQ==. Mailman should ensure a linefeed is added if one isn't already present, but on using the text block, not editing it so the blank line appears in the GUI as then the user will wonder why they can't remove it. ** Affects: mailman Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670033 Title: Text blocks, e.g. msg_footer, might not end with linefeed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1670033/+subscriptions From mark at msapiro.net Sat Mar 4 14:26:40 2017 From: mark at msapiro.net (Mark Sapiro) Date: Sat, 04 Mar 2017 19:26:40 -0000 Subject: [Bug 266269] Re: Default list signature blocks do not follow good netiquette References: <20080905193021.27052.96508.launchpad@forster.canonical.com> Message-ID: <20170304192640.7760.83708.malone@chaenomeles.canonical.com> Mailman list footers are not intended to be signatures. ** Changed in: mailman Status: Confirmed => Won't Fix -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/266269 Title: Default list signature blocks do not follow good netiquette To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/266269/+subscriptions From mark at msapiro.net Sat Mar 4 14:42:39 2017 From: mark at msapiro.net (Mark Sapiro) Date: Sat, 04 Mar 2017 19:42:39 -0000 Subject: [Bug 1670033] Re: Text blocks, e.g. msg_footer, might not end with linefeed References: <20170304180537.7760.14797.malonedeb@chaenomeles.canonical.com> Message-ID: <20170304194240.5740.97182.malone@wampee.canonical.com> If you position the cursor to the end of the last line, you should be able to press enter/return and add a new line. You should be able to ensure in the web GUI that msg_footer ends with a new-line. If this doesn't work, it would seem to be a browser issue. The base64 encoding is a Debian modification having to to with their changing Mailman's character set for English (and all other languages) to UTF-8. ** Changed in: mailman Status: New => Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670033 Title: Text blocks, e.g. msg_footer, might not end with linefeed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1670033/+subscriptions From ralph at inputplus.co.uk Sat Mar 4 15:36:12 2017 From: ralph at inputplus.co.uk (Ralph Corderoy) Date: Sat, 04 Mar 2017 20:36:12 -0000 Subject: [Bug 1670033] Re: Text blocks, e.g. msg_footer, might not end with linefeed References: <20170304180537.7760.14797.malonedeb@chaenomeles.canonical.com> Message-ID: <20170304203612.22443.28210.malone@gac.canonical.com> Hi Mark, Yes I can add a "blank" line to the end of the text area. My point is, it isn't obvious to the user that they should do this. By doing so they may think, like me, that they're adding an unwanted blank line to the msg_footer, for example. Just as Unix text editors shouldn't produce a text file without a trailing newline, since POSIX mandates a text file is zero or more LF-terminated lines, so I think Mailman has to work around the different UI presented by web-browser text areas and ensure the text it uses from them has a terminating LF. Thanks for the Debian pointer on the base64. I think other encodings would show the lack of final LF too though, e.g. Quoted-Printable of the above base64: --=20 sig0 sig1= -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670033 Title: Text blocks, e.g. msg_footer, might not end with linefeed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1670033/+subscriptions From 1670033 at bugs.launchpad.net Sat Mar 4 16:24:39 2017 From: 1670033 at bugs.launchpad.net (Launchpad Bug Tracker) Date: Sat, 04 Mar 2017 21:24:39 -0000 Subject: [Bug 1670033] Re: Text blocks, e.g. msg_footer, might not end with linefeed References: <20170304180537.7760.14797.malonedeb@chaenomeles.canonical.com> Message-ID: <20170304212442.7490.48906.launchpad@ackee.canonical.com> ** Branch linked: lp:mailman/2.1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670033 Title: Text blocks, e.g. msg_footer, might not end with linefeed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1670033/+subscriptions From mark at msapiro.net Sat Mar 4 16:28:27 2017 From: mark at msapiro.net (Mark Sapiro) Date: Sat, 04 Mar 2017 21:28:27 -0000 Subject: [Bug 1670033] Re: Text blocks, e.g. msg_footer, might not end with linefeed References: <20170304180537.7760.14797.malonedeb@chaenomeles.canonical.com> Message-ID: <20170304212827.6245.21893.malone@wampee.canonical.com> I'm not sure this won't have negative consequences on people/installations that do automated processing on list messages, but I'm willing to try it. ** Changed in: mailman Importance: Undecided => Low ** Changed in: mailman Status: Incomplete => Fix Committed ** Changed in: mailman Milestone: None => 2.1.24 ** Changed in: mailman Assignee: (unassigned) => Mark Sapiro (msapiro) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mailman Coders, which is subscribed to GNU Mailman. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1670033 Title: Text blocks, e.g. msg_footer, might not end with linefeed To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/1670033/+subscriptions From ralph at inputplus.co.uk Wed Mar 8 05:36:32 2017 From: ralph at inputplus.co.uk (Ralph Corderoy) Date: Wed, 08 Mar 2017 10:36:32 -0000 Subject: [Bug 1671036] [NEW] Full-width "invisible" Logout button hit by accident Message-ID: <20170308103632.7954.70513.malonedeb@chaenomeles.canonical.com> Public bug reported: On a /mailman/admindb/foo page it might say "There are no pending requests.
