No, you're not being unreasonable; you just asked a question I couldn't understand.I take it I didn't make myself perfectly clear. I understand that this is issued per user (thus the name personalization). At the bottom of my lists mails it reads (using user_optionsurl) http://jo.birdsense.com/mailman/options/[listname]/mburton%40jo.birdsens e.com - this is my mail systems address (jo.birdsense.com).What I would expect is http://www.birdsense.com/mailman/options/[listname]/mburton%40jo.birdsen se.com which is my web server's address. Note the www instead of jo in the address. This is what is shown at the bottom of the mailman-users list mails - http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/mburton%40jo.birdse nse.com. Again I would suspect that it might want to read www.python.org instead of mail.python.org, although I am not sure of this one as I am not the admin for that system and really don't know how they have it setup and configured. Am I completely missing something here? Are my expectations that it would use the web server's address unreasonable?
So you mean "the hyperlink for the user options has a hostname which is apparently wrong; it looks like it's the hostname of the mail address rather than the hostname of the web server". It is, of course, a coincidence; if you used [EMAIL PROTECTED]'s options, the link would not be
http://sun.com/...., but rather http://jo.birdsense.com/..., of course.
So no, it's not the domain of the email address at all.
Your question is really "why do the hyperlinks in my user-options links use the wrong hostname".
The problem is likely in your DEFAULT_ settings in mm_cfg.py (or Defaults.py). See the comments in Defaults.py around DEFAULT_URL_HOST
(assuming you're using 2.1 latest or near to it).
