While analyzing another problem, I again found a string of these messages in
the log, at the time when the monthly automatic password reminder mails were
being sent:

This time, I managed to locate the string "[email protected]" in
/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/lists/mailman/config.pck.

This image appears to be an excerpt from the raw pickle file. Config.pck
is a Python pickle and its raw content is difficult for humans to
comprehend. Get a human friendly representation with
/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/bin/dumpdb
/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/lists/mailman/config.pck
This seems to be a configuration file set up by the "mailing list
administration" webpages in the administrative interface for the mailing list. Thing
is, I cannot find this field anywhere on any of those pages.
This is the list's configuration and membership data.
I could try a meataxe approach and just patch the dratted thing, but I'd rather
understand how this got there and the proper way to change it. Can anyone help?
Don't do that. You'll almost certainly break your list.
That said, password reminders are sent with envelope from the configured
MAILMAN_SITE_LIST-bounces@domain address, normally
mailman-bounces@domain, so that bounces of password reminders go there.
Bounce processing which receive a message to that address tries to
forward it to the owner(s) of the site list with envelope from the
mailman-loop address. The mailman-loop address is normally configured in
the MTA to deliver to a local file or a guaranteed deliverable address.
In your case you see bounces of messages from the mailman-loop address
to [email protected]. These are DSNs for password reminders
that bounced, and the [email protected] address is an owner
of the site list.
The bottom line is some password reminders are bouncing and the bounce
DSNs are being sent to [email protected] and that address
is undeliverable. You need to adjust the owner of the site list to be a
deliverable address so you can see the bounces and see what user
addresses are bouncing. Or, maybe you can find where the DSN's to
mailman-loop are going and see them there.
Caveat: This reply is based on standard GNU Mailman 2.1. It probably
applies to cPanel Mailman 2.2, but no guarantees.
