Hi there, I'd like to setup GNU Mailman with OpenSMTPD. In #1040[1], poolpOrg told me command processing is to be done with a .forward file instead of aliases:
> I think aliases should not support command processing at all as handling > these from a .forward file is equivalent So I looked up the man page forward(5) and it also says > A .forward file contains a list of expansion values, as described in > aliases(5). Therefore, I assumed I could just set up a .forward file for mailman (in addition to aliasing the addresses to user "mailman"). Example content for running mailing list gene...@example.org: # general mailing list general: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman post general" general-admin: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman admin general" general-bounces: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman bounces general" [...] But apparently, that's not how .forward files work. aliases are key-value, but .forward rules are only values, and a mail would always be forwarded to *each* of the lines. At least that's what I understand from the errors I get. I don't think it's possible to set different forwarding rules for different addresses which are all aliased to the same user, hence I still have to go for aliases in this case? Could anyone please confirm that or tell me where I'm wrong. Thanks in advance! Regards Matt [1]: https://github.com/OpenSMTPD/OpenSMTPD/issues/1040
