Hi! New to the list! I'm the community support manager at the Asterisk project.
We've used mailman for ages and we are on 2.1.14 at the moment. I rarely get too deep with mailman other than the administration interface. It mostly works and we don't touch much underneath. Recently I started receiving a lot of spam on the mailman-bounces@ addresses where the From address no longer contains the mailman-bounces@ address and instead contains the spammer's address. In this case the spam doesn't look like bounce traffic. I'm wondering if someone can help me identify why mailman might let it through? From reading documentation and the mailman mail archives I get the impression that it should be discarding this traffic. However I can't identify why it isn't discarding this non-bounce traffic. Here is one example of the spam that comes to the owners addresses via mailman-bounces: http://pastebin.com/u2HyNLw6 The list in question has all three bounce notification options set to *no*. That is: bounce_unrecognized_goes_to_list_owner bounce_notify_owner_on_disable bounce_notify_owner_on_removal With these three options disabled - should I expect mailman to relay spam like this to the list owners through mailman-bounces@ ? Is there a way to tell mailman to not send anything from mailman-bounces? Preferably I'd like to have mailman only pass through legitimate bounce messages. If that isn't possible then I'd like to find out how to disable the traffic from mailman-bounces completely. If I haven't provided enough information, let me know and I'll do my best to get it for you. Thanks in advance. -- Rusty Newton ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
