Thanks for the info and your help Mark. I have done some looking at the Cpanel site, but will do some more.
I sent the test message per your instructions and as a result, the list owner received this message: ------------- Subject: Uncaught bounce notification The attached message was received as a bounce, but either the bounce format was not recognized, or no member addresses could be extracted from it. This mailing list has been configured to send all unrecognized bounce messages to the list administrator(s). For more information see: http://domain.com/mailman/admin/list1_domain.com/bounce ------------- It appears the bounce process is processing the messages, but is only forwarding on unrecognized messages. What is it doing with recognized bounce messages? The settings in Cpanel are minimal and the settings in Mailman appear to be correct. I prefer not going to the webhoster helpdesk blind without having a sense of the problem. Does the above statement of the problem appear to be accurate? Anyone have any additional thoughts?

If instead, the message is returned to you by the incoming MTA, The MTA is not set up properly. This would have to be addressed through your web host or CPanel, neither of which I can help with. >-----Original Message----- >From: Mark Sapiro [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] >Sent: Saturday, September 18, 2004 3:59 PM >To: Tony >Subject: RE: [Mailman-Users] No Bounce Notification > >>I have limited shell access and am unable to view the /var/log/maillog. > >That's not the log I mean.
