If you set up Exim as suggested in <http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.019.htp> and the references it points to, you won't need to bother with aliases at all for Mailman, and you won't have this problem. >Subject: Mail delivery failed: returning message to sender >Return-path: ><[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Exim is not recognizing that addresses of the form [EMAIL PROTECTED] should be delivered as if +suffix is not there. In your case, using aliases, I *think* your systemalias: router needs the following: local_part_suffix = +* local_part_suffix_optional either that or you need aliases like wil-mailing-bounces+*: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces wil-mailing" wil-mailing-confirm+*: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm wil-mailing" but it is much better to set up a router and transport for mailman as discussed in the material referenced in the FAQ or at <http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node16.html>. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
