Now I understand the confusion. We use 'host' in a number of places where we really mean 'domain' and it can be particularly confusing for email addresses where the 'domain' may just have an MX record and not be a 'machine' at all. However, this terminology is deeply embedded and affects translations if it were to be changed, so I don't propose to actually change it at this point. -- Mark Sapiro The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Where are you seeing "Preferred Hostname"? Mailman's General Options page says Host name this list prefers for email. (Details for host_name) which seems clear enough. I can't find the regexp 'preferred.?host' case insensitively anywhere in the GNU Mailman distribution. -- Mark Sapiro The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

It is the list posting address, i.e. listname@host_name, the same as the address in "To post a message to all the list members, send email to ..." on the list's listinfo page. If the local part in the List-Post: header is not the list name, something is seriously wrong, but I don't know what. If the domain is not what you think it should be, the list's host_name (on the General Options page) is wrong. You can change it there, although that may indicate issues with add_virtualhost and DEFAULT_*_HOST in mm_cfg.py. As I said before, if you sometimes don't see it, it might be because you are looking at a reply sent to you directly (To: or Cc:) and not from the list. -- Mark Sapiro The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Thunderbird and many other MUAs rely on the RFC 2369 List-Post: header for "reply to list". There are six RFC 2369 List-* headers; List-Id:, List-Unsubscribe:, List-Archive:, List-Post:, List-Help: and List-Subscribe:. Mailman's adding of these headers is controlled by the lists General Options include_rfc2369_headers and include_list_post_header settings. If include_rfc2369_headers is No, none of these headers will be added. If include_rfc2369_headers is Yes, List-Post: will be added only if include_list_post_header is Yes, List-Archive will be added only if the list is archiving and the other four will be added. So to ensure posts received from the list have a List-Post header, both include_rfc2369_headers and include_list_post_header must be Yes. Also note that if your "Avoid duplicate copies of messages?" setting on a list is Yes and you are directly addressed in a reply, the copy you receive doesn't come from the list and won't have any Mailman headers. -- Mark Sapiro The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.
