When you send mail to a foreign domain, it will look in the DOMAIN file and try and find a matching entry. Mailman was recently enhanced to support DNS (if enabled), but I don't know if it looks at MX records (as it should) or just A records. If it does not use MX type resource records, that's a bug. > > When you said "connect to Mailman via SMTP." are you referring to > inbound > mail only, or is there some way I should compose a MIME-encoded > message than > route it to MailMan so it can send it? You can just list the domain name (or perhaps IP address) of your system as the SMTP server for your mail client. As far as SMTP is conceerned, MIME formatted messages are no different from any other messages, and Mailman can relay them just fine. > > BTW, the creation of the email is the result of an event in VistA, > which is > why I would like to tie it into the VistA architecture somehow rather > than > writing something new, externally. Well, you can build the message yourself, but you need to be sure that you include appropriate MIME headers (and I'm not certain Mailman will allow you to do this, though if it doesn't, it should.) If it's just text, you can use ^XMB. If you want to be really tricky, you can even connect to localhost on port 25. Off-hand, I don't know if you can use CALL^%ZISTCP, the documentation seems to imply that you may not be able to. BTW, the lack of standardfization of TCP/IP APIs between MUMPS implementations, and the lack of support for such basic things as UDP and control operations (ioctl) has long been a frustration of mine. > > Thanks, > MailNewbie > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of > Greg > Woodhouse > Sent: Monday, June 26, 2006 2:30 PM > To: hardhats-members@lists.sourceforge.net > Subject: Re: [Hardhats-members] Programatically generate MailMan > messages? > > > > --- Dan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Agreed.
