Thank you so much for providing me guidance, Jim. We have mailing lists on our in-house which we want to decommission. So, we have to keep the email addresses same for the respective mailing lists (means they must have @fdu.edu domain).
I wrote a program to create mailing lists using a default config file which has default settings including domain set to fdu.edu . I added code which takes the list of subscribers for the mailing list exported from old system and subscribes them to the newly created mailing list which looks like is working based on some internal testing. Thank you again for your help and guidance. We really appreciate it. [cid:05b1c1e2-8ba7-4dba-9549-f1fc7287c3a8] Vishal K.

An important consideration is whether you want to let your Mailman system create an arbitrary mailing list. For example would your mail admin allow the Mailman system create a list named: vgan...@fdu.edu? The easiest solution is to create mailing lists in a separate name space (domain). The common practice is to create lists under lists.fdu.edu. Then Mm-handler is the easy solution. You can ignore all the troubles with generating aliases files. If your mail admin really wants the list to appear in fdu.edu they can add the aliases under fdu.edu. Mm-handler is shown for sendmail but it will work in any mailer. My updates to mm-handler are on: http://sw.ziobro.info/mm-handler/ Ciao, //Z\\ Jim Ziobro ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/vgandhi%40fdu.edu ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
