I would not be at all surprised if the fault is a misconfigured MTA which is inappropriately replacing the external domain name with the internal domain name, for e-mail addressed to external clients. Since there is this schizophrenia with regards to the domain names used, I'd recommend keeping all that completely outside of Mailman. Only worry about one given set of internal domain names for everyone, then let the MTAs to the outside world be responsible for handling all internal/external domain name conversion in both directions. You'd probably have to fix up the web server system in the same way. The other alternative is to logically put the Mailman server in the external network and have it know nothing about the internal users, and then let the MTAs and web proxy servers handle the translation the other way. -- Brad Knowles, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trend Micro has announced that they will cancel the stop.mail-abuse.org mail forwarding service as of 15 November 2006.
