There's a few reasons that this could be happening (none relating to Mailman that I know of) A> Your DNS records haven't bounced back to you yet (in some cases this can take up to 3d to filter through the 'net). Personally, I use EveryDNS, with a perl monitor every hour or so. They manage to get the ip back and registered usually in < an hour and in some cases MUCH less. B> Your OLD I.P. address is hardcoded into your MTA somewhere (I believe PARTS of qmail do this (depending on your distro)). C> You somehow have your old I.P. address set in your O.S. some other way. ___________________________________ TJW: Head tech, Dreamless Realms Mud: http://dreamless.wolfstream.net Snippets http://dreamless.wolfstream.net/ Telnet dreamless.wolfstream.net:9275 The OLC Pages http://olc.wolfstream.net ___________________________________ ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/
