I've noticed that in our Mailman installations here we're getting some odd addresses showing up in different places. For instance, the "Welcome" web page contains:
"If you are having trouble using the lists, please contact mailman@list_hostname.tld." [list_hostname.tld is any list's FQDN] "mailman" is not the name of the list for which "list_hostname.tld" is the FQDN of the list, and this address will bounce. A similar situation happens with the monthly reminder messages for which userpass.txt is the template. The text going out contains: "If you have questions, problems, comments, etc, send them to mailman-owner@list_hostname.tld." Again, this bounces - "listname-owner@list_hostname.tld" would not. This is happening on two different Mailman installations, running 2.1.18 and 2.1.18-1. Do I have a misconfiguration here? The comments in the source indicate that these token replacements insert _site_ information rather than _list_ information, so maybe this is the expected behavior. Do I need to set up a "mailman" address alias for _each_ virtual host on the system so that these addresses will work? This is doable, but is it documented? -- Lindsay Haisley | "The first casualty when FMP Computer Services | war comes is truth." 512-259-1190 | http://www.fmp.com | -- Hiram W Johnson ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [email protected] https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
