Below in the /var/log/maillog file, why are the 4 posts sent to testlist-bounces? I was assuming that there would be one post for each of the four list members (dud1,dud2,dud3,dud4). Is it normal to see the testlist-bounces? I have set up a mailertable on the receiving side of Sendmail that will accept all mail from domain.gov and send it to the mailman delivery agent. On the sending side of Sendmail I do not use this mailertable and have set up a smart relay to relay the domain.gov messages to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and also set the Sendmail MTAHost on the send side to this same machine. I have verified that I can send email directly from the server that I have Mailman on to this remote MTA via Sendmail. I agree with your assessment that Mailman seems to be trying to post the message to the list members. But, why is Mailman trying to relay through localhost. I set up my DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST to be [EMAIL PROTECTED] in my mm_cfg.py file. The localhost will not recognize the [EMAIL PROTECTED] address but the [EMAIL PROTECTED] server should. I have not overridden the default DELIVERY_MODULE="SMTPDirect". By the way, I am truly sorry that I am so dense on this stuff. You are doing a great job trying to guide me through the jungle.

PROTECTED], but here there is an additional entry (second of 5) which is actual delivery of the first bounce to the mailman wrapper. > Jun 7 09:28:35 domainwcs1 sendmail[4517]: [ID 801593 mail.info] >

the bounce of [EMAIL PROTECTED] plus the delivery to mailman of the second bounce. > Jun 7 09:28:35 domainwcs1 sendmail[4513]: [ID 801593 mail.info] > k57DSZ8Z004512:

mailer=prog, > pri=35136, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent and finally, the delivery to Mailman of the last two bounces. So mailman is sending the post to [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED], the MTA is accepting the post and then ultimately bouncing all 4 addresses. This is an MTA configuration or other issue. The MTA (Sendmail) either can't deliver to these addresses or won't relay to them from localhost. This doesn't appear to be a Mailman issue. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
