In this case we have an email address hosted by Google's business mail services, that forwards to the Mailman list on a remote server. <http://lists.nextspace.us/mailman/admin/nextspace-chatter/?VARHELP=privacy/recipient/acceptable_aliases> I setup a test forwarded and confirmed that Google is in fact added the X-BeenThere: header. I'm assuming that Google just added this header a few days ago, since the list worked fine before that. <http://lists.nextspace.us/mailman/admin/nextspace-chatter/?VARHELP=privacy/recipient/acceptable_aliases> Also email sent to the list's local address (not routed via Google) work just fine. We have *"require_explicit_destination*" set, with the Google hosted email address <http://lists.nextspace.us/mailman/admin/nextspace-chatter/?VARHELP=privacy/recipient/require_explicit_destination> listed in the "*acceptable_aliases*". <http://lists.nextspace.us/mailman/admin/nextspace-chatter/?VARHELP=privacy/recipient/acceptable_aliases> I disabled *require_explicit_destination* <http://lists.nextspace.us/mailman/admin/nextspace-chatter/?VARHELP=privacy/recipient/require_explicit_destination> and removed the acceptable aliases, however the problem still exists. I'm not certain I'm reading the code correctly, but it appears that Mailman (version 2.1.5) is only looking for the presence of the X-BeenThere: header, not comparing the contents to the list address : /usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Handlers/Approve.py: # has this message already been posted to this list? beentheres = [s.strip().lower() for s in msg.get_all('x-beenthere', [])] if mlist.GetListEmail().lower() in beentheres: raise Errors.LoopError Thoughts?
