Hi, I've been running mailman for some years and are satisfied with how it works and thougt I collected some knowledge about it. I've been running mailman with both postfix and sendmail as MTA:s without any problem. A couple of months ago we decided to give the hosting software plesk a chance and now the challenge began for me. Plesk is using qmail and I haven't really understood what I doing wrong now but maybe you could help me out.
The server hosts several domains which have the ability to create mailman lists via the webbinterface. This works great, the problem comes every month when the monthly reminders are sent out. I'll try to describe this with an example. An explicit example: The address [EMAIL PROTECTED] is a member of the list [EMAIL PROTECTED], the problem is that this address isn't working. So when mail is sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] a bounce is produced. This bounce would in an ideal world be sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] that would be extracted to the list administrator. However, when the monthly reminder is sent out we (as postmaster) get the following (see below). Everywhere in the header we see [EMAIL PROTECTED] and not [EMAIL PROTECTED] The problem also seems to be that [EMAIL PROTECTED] isn't accepting any mails. Any hints on how to get the maillists to send bounces to [EMAIL PROTECTED] I've tried both searching the Internet and talking to the Plesk support without any luck so any help is deeply appreciated. //kim ##################### .qmail-manskor-bounces ############################### Plesk# .qmail-manskor-bounces |/var/qmail/bin/preline /var/qmail/bin/mm_wrapper /var/mailman/mail/mailman bounces manskor #################### Bounce sent to postmaster ############################## Hi.
