Minor Feature Request: Descriptions in List-Id headers

adamengst · 2018 年5 月 3 日 14:29

One of my readers pointed out that Discourse List-Id headers lack verbal descriptions, which would be helpful (in a small way). The short suggestion is to add descriptions in the form:

List-Id: Sitename | CategoryName <categoryslug.domain.name>

cheers… -Adam

PS: Here’s the message I got, so you can see where the guy is coming from.

Your mailing lists insert the List-Id tag into the mail header, which is nice and expected. However, they insert only the identifier without description. I get

List-ID: <article-comments.talk.tidbits.com>
List-ID: <tidbits-talk.talk.tidbits.com>
List-ID: <site-feedback.talk.tidbits.com>

Other lists include also a verbal description. For example, a few of my actual mailing lists:

List-Id: Macintosh Pascal Mailing List <mac-pascal.lists.sonic.net>
List-Id: How to use LiveCode <use-livecode.lists.runrev.com>
List-Id: MailMate Users <mailmate.lists.freron.com>
List-Id: Discussion for revIgniter <revigniter-livecodejournal.com>
List-ID: Eudora for the Mac <eudora-mac.cartel.listmoms.net>

I can set up my mail program to group the list posts by List-Id identifiers, but descriptions are much easier to see (I mean to click the correct mailing list), hence it would be great if you could have:

List-ID: TidBITS | Article Comments <article-comments.talk.tidbits.com>
List-ID: TidBITS | TidBITS Talk <tidbits-talk.talk.tidbits.com>
List-ID: TidBITS | Site Feedback <site-feedback.talk.tidbits.com>

Looks like a good and easy idea

A minor suggestion, wouldn’t #{parent_category_name} #{topic.category.name} make more sense here?

github.com/discourse/discourse

lib/email/sender.rb

7d223c0e5


      
            @message.header['References']  = [topic_message_id, referenced_post_message_ids].flatten.compact.uniq
          end
          
          # https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2919.txt
          if topic && topic.category && !topic.category.uncategorized?
            list_id = "#{SiteSetting.title} | #{topic.category.name} <#{topic.category.name.downcase.tr(' ', '-')}.#{host}>"
          
            # subcategory case
            if !topic.category.parent_category_id.nil?
              parent_category_name = Category.find_by(id: topic.category.parent_category_id).name
              list_id = "#{SiteSetting.title} | #{topic.category.name} #{parent_category_name} <#{topic.category.name.downcase.tr(' ', '-')}.#{parent_category_name.downcase.tr(' ', '-')}.#{host}>"
            end
          else
            list_id = "#{SiteSetting.title} <#{host}>"
          end
          
          # https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3834.txt
          @message.header['Precedence'] = 'list'
          @message.header['List-ID']    = list_id
          
          if topic

That way emails for (for instance) Development - Mozilla Discourse would be:

Mozilla | Add-ons Development

rather than:

Mozilla | Development Add-ons

You’re right. I blindly copied the order of the List-Id…

您好，

我正在根据我社区用户的需求重新提出这项功能请求。
他们希望在消息来自群组时，列表 ID 能提供更多详细信息。

我已经启用了“主题中的群组”，但这并不能完全满足我的用户。

是否有可能添加群组名称；也许是在“主题中的群组”为 true 时添加？
