Aside: If you'd post from your subscribed address, you'd avoid moderation delay and possible rejection of your post. In list posts, unless the list is anonymous, the Message-ID: is the Message-ID of the incoming message. Mailman's internally generated messages and anonymized posts have a Message-ID of the form Message-ID: mailman.sssss.ttttt.ppppp.listname@hostname where sssss is a sequence # ttttt is a time returned by Python's time.time() ppppp is the PID of the generating process > One of my users is having trouble receiving mail from a couple of > lists.

That is fixable, but I don't understand why some messages get > the 'special' domain and others do not. I note that all this mail is routed through tummms.chboston.org. What do the MTA logs on that server show? Note that the <201303300400.r2u402tx030...@healthmap.chip.org> message id is not a Mailman generated message id. It was either generated by the process that originated the mail or it was added by healthmap.chip.org because the message passed through that MTA without a Message-ID:. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
