If you mean the email sent to the potential subscriber asking her/him to confirm the subscription, the answer is no. See below for more discussion. >I have the following logs in my postfix but the owner is not getting any >bounces: > >Nov 11 13:43:46 mail postfix/local[19345]: 313C22FED3: >to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, >orig_to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, > relay=local, delay=0, status=sent (delivered to command: >/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces listname) >Nov 11 13:43:46 mail postfix/qmgr[19329]: 313C22FED3: removed > >I have the following settings in my bounce processing section: >bounce processing: Yes >bounce_score_threshold: 5.0 >bounce_info_stale_after: 7 >bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings: 3 >bounce_you_are_disabled_warnings_interval: 7 >bounce_unrecognized_goes_to_list_owner: Yes >bounce_notify_owner_on_disable: Yes >bounce_notify_owner_on_removal: Yes Look in Mailman's 'bounce' log. Here's what happens with the above settings. A bounce is returned to list-bounces. If it is not recognizable, it is forwarded to the list owner (bounce_unrecognized_goes_to_list_owner: Yes). If it is recognized, the bouncing address is determined. If this address is not a list member, the bounce is ignored and nothing further happens with this bounce. If the address is a list member, the bounce is scored and logged in the bounce log. If it is the second or subsequent bounce in the same day, it is logged only. If the score reaches the threshold, the member's delivery is disabled and the owner is notified (bounce_notify_owner_on_disable: Yes). The owner notice contains a copy of the bounce DSN. This is the only time the owner sees an actual DSN. A warning is also sent to the bouncing user. After this point, processing is by cron/disabled which looks at members with delivery disabled by bounce and sends additional warnings (at 7 day intervals) and ultimately removes the member if still disabled by bounce after 21 days. If a subscription confirmation request bounces, and the DSN is recognized, it is ignored because the bouncing address is not yet a list member. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
