1. When i setup the mailman box on the private network i used the private IP at the hostname etc - now i have gone back in and replaced everywqhere i can find with the FQDN
You should only have had to change, in mm_cfg.py, the applicable MM config variables described in Defaults.py. Typically something like what follows, at the end of your mm_cfg.py, will do the trick:
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'your.mailhostname.tld' DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'your.webhostname.tld' VIRTUAL_HOSTS.clear() add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST)
Having done that, the $prefix/bin/withlist script $prefix/bin/fix_url.py is your friend. Just run fix_url.py to get its usage.
If you are using the MM pipermail archiver with HTML archives, you might also need to run $prefix/bin/arch if there is archived email with attachments that have been extracted with links to the attachments left in the email. These links seem to have the web_page_url of the list concerned at the time the email was added to the archive backed in. Running arch rebuilds these links.
- but still in responses to mailman-request the original private IP appears - see below - where exactly can i change this?

This is email command help for version 2.1 of the "Mailman" list manager. The following describes commands you can send to get information about and control your subscription to Mailman lists at this site. A command can be in the subject line or in the body of the message.
Note that much of the following can also be accomplished via the World Wide Web, at:

2. IS there a way of using the postfix style auto generated and update aliases with sendmail? I have postfix on my test machine and it works a treat, but i can see no option of doing this with sendmail.
You could take a look at $MMbuild/contrib/mm-handler which is a Sendmail mailer inplemented in Perl which obviates the need for maintaining the list aliases but subject to some fairly serious constraints.
There is a Python implementation of a Sendmail mailer with the same constraints as mm_mailer (which are basically Sendmail constraints) but which is more closely integrated with MM and which, I believe, is a more robust solution; being the author of it I would think that. See: http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&aid=644810&group_id=103&atid=300103
For preference you should use MM 2.1.2 and download the most recent version of the patch file which matches your MM version: currently mailer-2.1.2-0.1.patch.gz
Many thanks Pete
