I have moved a few lists from Majordomo to Mailman. The Mailman
machine is a different machine that the Majordomo machine. So,
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
became
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and I added an entry to the alias file on the Majordomo machine
redirecting mail. Someone sent mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
and the mail was received by Mailman but held for approval because
the list name was not in the "To:" or "Cc:" lines. I had to change the
require_explicit_destination
parm from "True" to "False" to get around this. Once all of the
posters use the new list address, I can remove the alias and change
this parm back to "True".
