hi,

thanks for the initial response. 'just like to share here what i learned...

"ezmlm doesn't look at any message content for sender
verification.  It checks the $SENDER variable provided by
qmail during delivery (which qmail gets from the MAIL FROM
part of the original SMTP conversation -- see RFC 2821[1]).

You'll have to check your qmail-send logs to see exactly
what *real* sender address corresponds to messages from
that person.

hi,

i do have the "From:" header who is a member of the mailing list but it doesn't work, i'm now confused as to which header does ezmlm really checks? the manual says it's the SENDER -- which header does this translates to?

'working on a mailing-list (ezmlm) + web-forum (superbb) app. i have a problem with mailing messages posted from the web-forum
to a restricted mailing list but when i open the mailing list for anyone to post, mailing works. i guess it has something to do with the sender address, how does one change the sender address? or what header does ezmlm checks to say sender is a subscriber and how can i change this to make it a valid mailing list user?



That is done at the web forum - it should have an option to set the sender since any mail sender can use any address whether from command line injection ('/usr/sbin/sendmail' or '/bin/mail') or via SMTP.
