(i'm new to mailman, and still working my way through the FAQ and docs, so if there's a simple URL that addresses this, that would be just ducky.)
can i set up one or more mailing lists on a concealed, internal host so that no one needs to know the actual name of that host? i have an internal host, internal.yoyodyne.com, that is not and should not be visible outside of yoyodyne.com. it's a fast, reliable machine, the perfect host for a mailing list or two. i'd like these mailing lists to be visible to both internal users and external users, but not by that name. instead, i'd like to establish an alias -- lists.yoyodyne.com -- that everyone can use. that's the name that people should be able to use to browse to the mailman web interface, subscribe, unsubscribe, get admin messages from and so on. but so far, it's proving to be a bit tricky. even after the company admin set up DNS and virtual hosting to create that alias, mailman still insists on using the actual internal name in some situations. if you browse to lists.yoyodyne.com, the top of the page says "internal". if you subscribe to a list, the confirmation message asks you to reply to "internal.yoyodyne.com". is it possible to *completely* conceal the internal name of a mailing list host? during configuration, i did my best to avoid using the internal name and used only the "lists" name, but i'm assuming that mailman is invoking "hostname" or something to that effect somewhere along the way. can this be done? thanks. rday ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] 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/ This message was sent to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
