Check the headers of this message! Two recipients. OK, that might be OK if python.org and list.org are handled by different servers. On our site, though, we have thousands of users and hundreds of lists in the same domain. Most of our list members are in that same domain. So, replies to list messages will frequently have more than one RCPT. Oh, and we make extensive use of umbrella lists, which might also make a difference. In fact, we have a complex heirarchy of lists which we'd like to develop further. -- Ian Eiloart IT Services, University of Sussex x3148 _______________________________________________ Mailman-Developers mailing list Mailman-Developers@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-developers Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-developers%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-developers/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
