I'm having troubles with the name used by mailman for sending mails: it keeps using the real hostname, whereas it is configured for using an alias.Apart the a real problem with default configuration in mm.cfg that can get ouf of sync with list configurations, there are two different answers sofar:
I have this setting in mm_cfg.py: DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'lists.zarb.org' DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'lists.zarb.org' add_virtualhost(DEFAULT_URL_HOST, DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST)
All list configuration says also host_name is lists.zarb.org, all URLs are OK, but it keep sending mails as @katu3.zarb.org, instead of @lists.zarb.org. What is wrong there ?
- a A rather than a CNAME is needed
- a MX entry is needed
Even if none of them worked for me sofar, both of them requires quite important modifications (DNS changes) for something that was just cosmetic (differencing real users adresses from list adresses), so I prefered to revert to original situation (@zarb.org for everything).
However, it is quite interesting actually that I got different answers to this question, so it seems to be quite a complex issue...
