** Description changed: Binary package hint: mailman Scenario: When we send an email to a mailing list in either To: or Cc: header and an address in Cc header with unquoted display name, mailman breaks that into couple of addresses. For example: To: us...@domain1.com Cc: mailing-l...@domain1.com, display name <addr...@domain1.com> It becomes: Cc: mailing-l...@domain1.com, display, name <addr...@domain1.com> This is wrong because "display" becomes a different address. There seems to be bug in /usr/lib/mailman/pythonlib/email/_parseaddr.py. Same bug is reported in Debian and Redhat as well for 2.1.9 version of mailman. https://partner-bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=603635 http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=516300 System Information: lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 8.04.3 LTS Release: 8.04 - dpkg -l | grep -E '(mailman|python)' ii mailman 1:2.1.9-9ubuntu1 Powerful, web-based mailing list manager ii python 2.5.2-0ubuntu1 An interactive high-level object-oriented la ii python-apt 0.7.4ubuntu7.5 Python interface to libapt-pkg ii python-central 0.6.7ubuntu0.1 register and build utility for Python packag ii python-gdbm 2.5.2-0ubuntu2 GNU dbm database support for Python ii python-gnupginterface 0.3.2-9ubuntu1 Python interface to GnuPG (GPG) ii python-minimal 2.5.2-0ubuntu1 A minimal subset of the Python language (def ii python-support 0.7.5ubuntu1 automated rebuilding support for python modu ii python2.5 2.5.2-2ubuntu6 An interactive high-level object-oriented la ii python2.5-minimal 2.5.2-2ubuntu6 A minimal subset of the Python language (ver Actual Results: Single email address in Cc header became two addresses Expected Results: Single email address should remain as one address only + + TEST CASE: + Using a standalone mailman + postfix setup on Hardy I have been able to reproduce using the following procedure: + + Install postfix and configure as final destination for <hostname>.example.com + Setup three users (user1, user2 and user3) + Install mailman and setup default (mailman) and test-list (with user1 as list owner) list. + Configure Apache to allow administration of mail lists + Install and configure dovecot for local mail delivery. + Add user2 to the test-list mail list using the administration screens + + Using the attached email (test.txt), simulate the offending use case + using the following command using the user1 account: + + telnet localhost 25 < test.txt + + Address for user three will break into two email addresses
