One of my mailing lists that I converted over from my Mailman 2 instance doesn’t get used much. Well, something momentous happened and it got several messages overnight, and I noticed something odd about them. Every one has the signature “— \nAdministration:”. This looks like a fragment of the signature that Mailman 2 used to put on them, but I can’t figure out where it’s configured. There’s nothing in the list or domain template list that would do that. How can I stop it doing that?
The only thing I can think of is that there is a template variable reference starting the template, and for some reason that has that odd signature component as a value.
If it's not in the footer template or pulled in by a variable reference, I don't think Mailman's doing it. IIRC there are actually three templates for the footer: one for the regular delivery, one for the digest, and one for both (Mailman checks for the appropriate one, then for the dual-use one). It only uses the first one found. It does not try to merge the mode-specific footer with the dual-use footer.
Are you getting deliveries for that list as a digest or regular delivery? Were the messages from different sources, or are you otherwise pretty sure that the author(s) didn't add them?
