Re: smartmail/exim question

1997-11-11 Thread Christoph Lameter 
This phenomenon is due to the strict RFC conformity of exim.
smartlist generates a header with Resent-From but no
Resent-To. To comply with some RFC exim will insert a
Resent-To header (I got that from Phil a while back). This
is known to the smartlist people and the examples for Smartlist
mention a workaround.


Add this to rc.local.s20

#
# Some sendmails get very jumpy if they don't find a Resent-To:
# field,
# use this to give them one:
#

:0 fhw
| formail -a Resent-To: multiple recipients of
$listaddr

I figured that too (I was comparing notes against how the lists on
master were set up).

I'm just using the /var/list/.bin/choplist (altsendmail) method
that smartlist defaults to.  I changed very little.  Perhaps I should
try not using that method?

Unfortunately, the exim docs don't say anything about adding Resent-To
headers.

See if you can not use choplist at all. It's a bit easier on the MDA.
We are currently delivering the Debian lists with qmail, although I think
we will eventually switch to something else since qmail's license is so
strange.

smartmail/exim question

1997-11-04 Thread Jim Pick 

I've recently installed exim and set up several smartlist mailing
lists.  Things are working the way I want them to, except for
one thing.

Every outgoing message contains a Resent-To: header with the addresses
of everyone on the list.  How can I get rid of this?

Cheers,

 - Jim

I'm not getting that on any of my exim/smartlist lists. Should I send
you my exim config and a config from a smartlist list?

Ok, I figured out how to do it.

There is a new feature in exim 1.73 (just uploaded) that allows you to
strip selected headers.  I changed to the following in /etc/exim.conf:

 # General configuration for SMTP delivery
smtp:
  remove_headers = Resent-To,
  driver = smtp;

And that seems to be working.

Thanks for all the help.

Cheers,
