One of the ongoing (if sporadic) discussions on the Mailman mailing lists is about the tension between sending rejection and deferral messages to "real" senders so they know what happened, and NOT sending those notices to senders to avoid collateral spam. With the present state of MTAs on the one hand, and Mailman on the other hand, there is no way using the tools that exist to determine at SMTP time that Mailman would not like to receive the offered message. (One could do things like writing a Python daemon--the needed information is in a Python pickle, so Python is the language of choice--to dig the information out of the Mailman data for an Exim RCPT TO: time ACL.) --John -- ## List details at http://www.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/exim-users ## Exim details at http://www.exim.org/ ## Please use the Wiki with this list - http://www.exim.org/eximwiki/
