This is a Microsoft mail client thing. Digests are sent From: 
listname-requ...@domain.com with envelope sender 
listname-boun...@domain.com, and what you see is what the mail client 
chooses to show you in this case.



And instead of the usual listn...@domain.com unsubscribe,archives,info 
link at the bottom of the message, it has ...


The digest footer can't contain any personalizations because digest 
can't be personalized, and is can't contain a link to the archived 
message because digests aren't archived (they contain messages which 
were archived, but the digest itself isn't)



One thing you can do is enable VERP. Assuming this in Mailman 2.1 since 
this list is for Mailman 2.1, you enable VERP by putting


VERP_DELIVERY_INTERVAL = 1

in mm_cfg.py. This will change the envelope sender (the bounces address) 
from


listname-boun...@domain.com>

to

listname-bounces+user=example@domain.com>

where replacing the '=' in user=example.com gives the recipient's address.

The other thing you can do is just look at all the digest members of the 
list. If there aren't too many, you may be able to figure out which it 
is. use Mailman's


bin/list_members -d -f listname

to get a list of digest members with their 'real name' if available.

Otherwise, as you note, if you can get her to send you the raw message 
headers, you may be able to get the address from the Received: headers.

Sounds like a microsoft exchange/outlook thing- the "on behalf of" part. Could be they have an internal list that's 
subscribed to the MM list, or that the MM list member is a secretary/assistant of the final recipient.


If you can, the the full SMTP headers and look at the top/most-recent Received:

Thanks for the reply. I had her forward the digest message to me, and it appears she did because the subject line says: 
FWD: listname Digest vol.  . She did add a bit of text to the forward explaining it was from her work email. So 
headers in the source view prior to her text just show received from her to me. After her little bit of text, it just 
has the From, Subject, To lines as one sees when receiving any message and then the digest text. So no headers to 
inspect. Perhaps if I could have her view the digest source and copy/paste it to me, that might be revealing. I'll see 
if she can do that. I'll have to google how to view source in MS Exchange.

I clicked on the link trusting my linux system would catch malware usually targeting windows, and it redirects to our MM 
list page. I'll make sure this person contacts her IT dept. to try and figure this out. Thanks for the reply!   /jim

[Mailman-Users] User receiving mail, but not subscribed

2021-08-16 Thread Jim Dory 

I suspect this stems from something inside this local corporation, but I'll ask 
the question:

I have a person contacting me to remove her work email from our subscription of our local email list, but her email is 
not subscribed. Usually when this happens, I have them forward a list message to me and I can discover which email it is
