I can't look at mailman right now, but some observations that might help: - with python 2.1: >>> 'barstring'.foo() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? AttributeError: foo - with python 2.2 >>> "barstring".foo() Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in ? AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'foo' which is closer to the David's error message, *but* has 'str' instead of 'string'. BTW: >>> type("dfsfsd") <type 'str'> I don't know where this 'string' comes from. -- Florent
