Hi, thanks for the hint.

However, the changes have effect only on Postfix. I can send a "help" request to prova3-p...@poshto.esperanto.cat but the reply seems to come from prova3-ow...@poshto.esperanto.cat, not from prova3-posedanto@þoshto.esperanto.cat. On the other hand, when I reply to prova3-owner I only get a message delivery error; I can only write to prova3-posedanto.

To fully internalionalize Mailman I would have to edit its templates, not just Postfix. Has anybody ever tried this? I guess my idea of "internationalization" is more ambitious than usual. Does anybody know where I can configure the variables that get substituted in the templates like %(requestaddr)s or %(adminaddr)s?

Hello all,
I'd like to know whether it's possible to internationalize addresses for list
control, like mylist-owner, mylist-subscribe, mylist-unsubscribe...

I tried editing the file /usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases and then running /usr/
lib/mailman/bin/genaliases, but it doesn't work, even after restarting the
server the default addresses are still the only ones valid. I should add that
the new addresses had only ASCII characters.


The above doesn't work because running /usr/lib/mailman/bin/genaliases
will rebuild /usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases and undo all your changes.
What you need to run after editing /usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases is

postalias /usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases

to rebuild the /usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases.db file, but this is
fragile because running genaliases or equivalent at any time in the
future will again undo your changes.

You need to make a second set, e.g., /usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases2 and
/usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases2.db with the same ownership and
permissions as the existing ones, perhaps by

cd /usr/lib/mailman/data/
cp -a aliases aliases2
cp -a aliases.db aliases2.db

make your changes to aliases2 and run 'postalias aliases2' to update
aliases2.db and then add hash:/usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases2 to your
Postfix config.
