[Mailman-Users] Re: Web requests with garbage at the end of the list name
I don't understand the terms you use. So I will not comment further on this thread. "Web UI"? "Email"? However, I did suggest using Google to find out more about Proofpoint. All the information is there. They do have a goal. Whether they achieve it, I do not know.

The listname before the garbage is correct. I suggest running all messages through .procmailrc with this recipe: The mangled list names are in the web UI, not email. david -- I'm riding in the American Diabetes Association's Tour de Cure to raise money for diabetes research, education, advocacy, and awareness.

He means that "midrange-l" is the name of an active list at his site, I'm pretty sure. Exactly correct. host(1) says the source or the request is AWS. :-/ None of this explains why the URL is targeting David's Mailman, unless it's the Mailman host that is running the Proofpoint. (It's not your job ;-), but any further hints would be appreciates. These requests are coming from an external source. I'm not running proofpoint. Not much I can do about it, I guess. Good to know the source of the requests though. Not sure what proofpoint is trying to do. They are just getting errors. Oh well.
