Hello Everyone, I'm afraid that I'm complaining about some un-expected / misleading behavior in the courier tools again.
When NOBOZOS=1 is set on a couriermlm list it will reject a message that starts *any* line with a keyword. E.g. cat <<EOF To: user-list@domain Subject: leftover pizza Hi guys, There's some pizza leftover in the kitchen. Help yourselves! -Me EOF I think that's weird enough to qualify as a bug. If the line does not begin with 'Help' it will post to the list, e.g.: cat <<EOF To: user-list@domain Subject: leftover pizza Hi guys, There's some pizza leftover in the kitchen. So help yourselves! -Me EOF There's mention in the list archives that if your bouncing mail, you should check the first sentence of the email for a keyword, which may be reasonable. It seems like you'd get too many false negatives checking every first line for a keyword. Since I'm using the debian courier packages, I've filed a debian bug. Package: courier-mlm State: installed Automatically installed: no Version: 0.73.1-1.6 Priority: optional https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=+831366 I suppose there's some chance that the bug is actually introduced as a result of something the debian maintainer did, or is something that has already been fixed (didn't notice anything in the current release changelog).
