Re: [courier-users] Couriermlm headaches - capital letters ?

[Bill Taroli]

I just set up a mail list using couriermlm (courier 0.44) and had *exactly* this same problem. I have locallowercase in place to ensure proper local delivery. But after pre-subscribing about 30 people to a new mail list, I found that two of them couldn't get emails in. On a lark, I had one go through the usual subscription process and suddenly she can send mail in... her email address is mixed-case.

Interestingly, in re-reading notes about locallowercase... it seems only to suggest that this will be used for local delivery. So what about addresses of SENDERS? That seems to be the diff here. The address compared to the subscriber list isn't really "local" per se... but I think the semantics suggest that the presence of the file indicates the desire for case insensitive email address handling on a *global*  basis.

It still doesn't work...

I have the file locallowercase in /etc/courier (debian dir), normal
delivery is working fine (capitals and lowercase mixed)

And I am sure the non-working adresses are subscribed (couriermlm lsub)
correctly.

Does locallowercase work for couriermlm ? And if so, do i have to enter
ALL the to-be-subscribed-adresses lowercase (like in userdb?)
I have a mixed (couriermlm lsub) list of 10 users ([EMAIL PROTECTED]
as well as [EMAIL PROTECTED]) now, of which only 2 don't work. They
both have capital letters in their domain. 
They ALL receive mail from the list, but 2 cant't post.

Not sure about couriermlm, but for local addresses to be treated case
insensitively, you need to touch 
/usr/local/courier/etc/locallowercase (or
your own equivalent). Don't know if that will help here though.

I tried to subscribe an email address mannually. The Email Adress
contains captials and 2 "-" like in: 
      

"[EMAIL PROTECTED]". I
    

tried the same by using the normal subscription method using 
      

an email to
    

the list.

Both methods result in the email address showing up (couriermlm lsub
listdir, and in the daily subscription list by mail to the 
      

owner), but
    

mail sent to the list by the sender (he did not change his 
      

email address
    

in the mean time) bounces "You are not subscribed to the list" ...

Do i need to start anything manually ? After 2 years of (not very
intense) use of couriermlm, this behaviour is new to me :)
