Mailman version 2.1.8
I administer mailman on a few domains, and on one I receive a lot of
spam seemingly sent to the mailman@ list. I can work on my spam
filters, but I'm trying to understand the path the mail is taking
through mailman.
The mailman@ list has only me as the admin and NO members.
I have just a handful of lists on this machine: users@, dev@, svn@,
etc.
When mail is sent to mailman@ I get a message with the following
headers:
Return-path: mailman-bounces@
Envelope-to: <my email address>
X-Original-To: mailman@
Delivered-To: users-owner@
The body of the message is simply the sender's body only -- it's not a
mailman-generated message (e.g. approval message).
In my sender filters I have:
generic_nonmember_action: hold
My question is why is mail to mailmain@ seemingly getting delivered to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Another thing I'm finding curious: I have RFC2369 headers enabled on
all lists (including the "mailman" site list). And indeed messages on
the other (e.g. users@) lists include these headers. But mail sent to
mailman@ does not include these headers. Why is that? Because
List-Post, List-Subscribe, etc. have no uses for the mailman list?
