The following is not too elegant, but you can just add a second router
so you have two as follows (order is important):
mailman_router:
driver = accept
domains = +mm_domains
require_files = MAILMAN_HOME/lists/$local_part/config.pck
local_part_suffix_optional
local_part_suffix = -bounces : -bounces+* : \
-confirm : -confirm+* : \
-join : -leave : \
-subscribe : -unsubscribe : \
-owner : -request : -admin
transport = mailman_transport
mailman__backup_router:
driver = accept
domains = +mm_domains
require_files = MAILMAN_HOME/lists/$local_part/config.pck
transport = mailman_transport
The first router will be invoked for addresses like 'list',
'list-admin', 'list-bounces', etc where 'list' is a valid list name.
Should there be a list with a name like 'xxx-admin', as long as there
also is not a list named 'xxx', the first router will fail to match on
list posts and the second router will match. Addresses like
'xxx-admin-bounces' etc. (even 'xxx-admin-admin') will match the first
router.
The only restriction is you can't have two lists, one named 'xxx' and
another named 'xxx-admin' or 'xxx-bounces', etc., but that's a problem
with other delivery methods too.
