Gerald, I have an example from my own domain below. It wasn't too obvious for me from looking at the maillog except I have a guess that it is also sending to the nobody account: Jul 17 18:58:31 baraka sendmail[1229]: o6HMwVO7001229: from=root, size=52, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[email protected]>, relay=r...@localhost Jul 17 18:58:31 baraka sendmail[1232]: STARTTLS=server, relay=localhost [127.0.0.1], version=TLSv1/SSLv3, verify=NO, cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits=256/256 Jul 17 18:58:31 baraka sendmail[1229]: STARTTLS=client, relay=[127.0.0.1], version=TLSv1/SSLv3, verify=FAIL, cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits=256/256 Jul 17 18:58:31 baraka sendmail[1232]: o6HMwVof001232: from=<[email protected]>, size=349, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[email protected]>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=localhost [127.0.0.1] Jul 17 18:58:31 baraka sendmail[1229]: o6HMwVO7001229: [email protected], ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=30052, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (o6HMwVof001232 Message accepted for delivery) Jul 17 18:58:31 baraka sendmail[1233]: o6HMwVof001232: o6HMwVoe001233: clone: owner=muntada Jul 17 18:58:31 baraka sendmail[1236]: o6HMwVK5001236: Authentication-Warning: baraka.muntadanet.com: mail set sender to [email protected] using -f Jul 17 18:58:31 baraka sendmail[1236]: o6HMwVK5001236: [email protected], size=740, class=-60, nrcpts=2, msgid=<[email protected]>, relay=m...@localhost Jul 17 18:58:31 baraka dovecot: imap-login: Login: user=<inquiries>, method=PLAIN, rip=127.0.0.1, lip=127.0.0.1, secured Jul 17 18:58:31 baraka dovecot: IMAP(inquiries): Disconnected: Logged out bytes=28/236 Jul 17 18:58:31 baraka sendmail[1241]: STARTTLS=server, relay=localhost [127.0.0.1], version=TLSv1/SSLv3, verify=NO, cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits=256/256 Jul 17 18:58:31 baraka sendmail[1236]: STARTTLS=client, relay=[127.0.0.1], version=TLSv1/SSLv3, verify=FAIL, cipher=DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA, bits=256/256 Jul 17 18:58:32 baraka sendmail[1241]: o6HMwVLf001241: from=<[email protected]>, size=978, class=-60, nrcpts=2, msgid=<[email protected]>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=localhost [127.0.0.1] Jul 17 18:58:32 baraka sendmail[1236]: o6HMwVK5001236: to=nobody,901-sales-list, [email protected] (8/12), delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=relay, pri=168740, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1], dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (o6HMwVLf001241 Message accepted for delivery) Jul 17 18:58:32 baraka sendmail[1233]: o6HMwVoe001233: to="|/usr/local/majordomo/wrapper resend -l sales -C /usr/local/majordomo/sites/site28/majordomo.cf 901-sales-list, nobody", ctladdr=<[email protected]> (8/0), delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=prog, pri=30633, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent Jul 17 18:58:32 baraka sendmail[1243]: o6HMwVLf001241: [email protected], delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local, pri=169215, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent Jul 17 18:58:32 baraka sendmail[1243]: o6HMwVLf001241: to=/dev/null, ctladdr=901-sales-archival (8/0), delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=*file*, pri=169215, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent The aliases.majordomo shows nobody.
