[Mailman-Users] Incorrect mail being received on mailman list
Hello, We have routers setup in exim, in the following order: - mailman_router: - dnslookup: - system_aliases: - userforward: - spam_router: - localuser: Lets say our domain is domain.com and we have one mailing list named fred. When emails are sent through exim to the address [EMAIL PROTECTED], they are actually accepted by mailman and delivered to [EMAIL PROTECTED]. This is obviously incorrect. Should mailman be reconfigured to only accept mail for particular domains, or do I have the routers in a non-perfect order? Any advice is very much appreciated :-) Thanks in advance, Richard. -- Richard Hobbs (Systems Administrator) Toshiba Research Europe Ltd. - Speech Technology Group Web: http://www.toshiba-europe.com/research/ Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: +44 1223 376964Mobile: +44 7811 803377 _ This e-mail has been scanned for viruses by MCI's Internet Managed Scanning Services - powered by MessageLabs.

You don't want to be doing local aliasing while messages for the world are still being considered by the routers. mailman_router after dnslookup should do the trick, given your router list above. --John (just bitten by a much more obscure version of the problem on one of our non-public machines) -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp
