Mailman (post 1.1) does this bounce detection - presumably by looking at the envelope sender in the first instance. I think I'm arguing for envelope senders of "postmaster[@domain]" and "mailer-daemon[@domain]" to be treated as failure messages by bounce detection code too. People with broken autoresponders would then get treated as if their address was failing while they took a vacation. This appeals to me as the punishment gets inflicted on the trouble maker, not the innocent list admin or (even worse) the other subscribers. Out of interest, where in the mailman code does this test get done? -- Steve Lay Technical Manager, ITAL Unit University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
