Hm. What about something that sits between the MDA and Mailman and makes this translation? Does that seem feasible? Would this require changing the alias for each list, for example, or is there another way to do this from within the MTA? I'm using postfix. I'm willing to require that all addresses that Mailman sees be the "external" address (@foobar.com), and the internal addresses can all be easily mapped to that external address by stripping off the internal domain and adding the external domain. The reverse is not true because there are multiple Exchange servers with different addresses. >> Anyone else have any ideas (not including changing the way our >> email or Exchange servers work... believe me I'd love to do that >> but...)? bk> IMO, the solution is to fix the problem where it is created. As I said, that would be good but is utterly out of the question. The people in charge of all the mail infrastructure will never do that. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Paul D.
