I meant I tried to subscribe the user to the list using mutt. I found out that mutt wasn't setting up the From: field to a correct address, making the mail being rejected. I now solved the problem but the forwarding still doesn't appear to work. I sent a standalone mail to jerome-ext at 15h39 and it worked. I sent a mail to a mailing list jerome-ext is subscribed at 15:15, and the mail never arrived to the external address. I guess it is because forwarding is not applied when mail sent through a list. That's why I cannot see anything in the James james-xxx.log: [...] 01/12/03 13:33:17 WARN James: Mail to be bounced does not contain a Return-Path header. 01/12/03 14:31:08 WARN James: Mail to be bounced does not contain a Return-Path header. 01/12/03 15:13:28 WARN James: Mail to be bounced does not contain a Return-Path header. 01/12/03 15:39:32 INFO James: Mail for jerome-ext forwarded to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I remember now having this problem some time ago. But I couldn't find the thread in the archives. How do I manage to forward the mail for a specific user to an external address, when this mail is delivered throught a mailing list? Am I obliged to create a script with a procmail or something similar? the jerome-ext user doesn't exist on the system so it is not practical if I have to do that for every user. Jerome
