That's from the post log. There should also be a message in the smtp-failure log of form 'delivery to %(recipient)s failed with code %(failcode)d: %(failmsg)s' giving more specific information about the failed recipient and reason. The sender and message-id in the log message you quote indicate that this is a Mailman generated message, not a post, possibly a notice of a held post or a response to a message to listname-request, etc. Most likely the original messages are spam and Mailman is sending some response to the sender of the spam and your MTA is rejecting the response recipient. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
