 Description  « Hide
mule-user management interface, trying to remove darren.mcentee (you'll easily find his email). Clicking the Remove link reloads the page but does not remove the item. The guy has been receiving unwanted emails for a while now

It's a trick of the light that you think you can unsubscribe users.

So two bugs
1) Remove the "Remove" link if you can't do it.
2) Allow you to do it.

I disagree. I was able to remove abusing users before(spammers), and Darren tried his best to unsubscribe on its own (didn't work).

Indeed you were right. Bob wrote all the security code and sometimes it's hard to work out what the hell it will do.

The problem stemmed from a bug we had a while ago where users would have email address with two different casings. It was partially fixed before, fully fixed now (we enforce case insensitive uniqueness at the database level as well now). We ignore RFC2821 as being too annoying (RFC2821 says that a@example.com might deliver to a different place than A@example.com).

Darren had emails of darren.mcentee@ and Darren.McEntee@ (or something like that)

Unfortunately the new Xircles code only picked up lower case subscriptions, but he was subscribed with mixed case.

I've made a couple of changes, cleaned up the data, unsubscribed Darren from user@mule and verified he's out of the ezmlm list.

Sorry for the delay.
