Here is the mailer definition for Mailman:
P=/usr1/mailman/sendmail/mm-handler, F=DFMPhESu9,
S=11/31, R=21/31, T=DNS/RFC822/X-Unix, U=104:104,
A=mm-handler $h $u
As you can see, we are using the mm-handler script that came with the
new mailman (I forgot we used this, doh!). This is handling all of
the aliases for our mailman lists. We would have heard someone
complain if it wasn't working.
Also, the sendmail mailer flag "u" which is being used and according to
the Bat book causes the case of the user part of the address to remain.
I also don't see anywhere in the mm-handler script that will do the
case conversion for us. So, it looks we could either remove the "u"
mailer flag or do the case conversion in the mm-handler script. Is there
is preference which one we should modify?
