[Mailman-Users] Mailman not sending to correct address
I am using Mailman 2.1.2 on a Debian box with Exim 4.2. When I add myself to a list as say '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (where mailman is not installed or virtual-hosted on foo.com). Mailman always sends the mail to jknotzke on localhost instead of @foo.com because there is a jknotzke account on localhost. Yet if I send regular mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] the mail arrives at [EMAIL PROTECTED] and not localhost. Why is this? Thanks J -- Justin F.

Have a look at your mailer tables to see if > your localhost system also claims to be able to receive mail for foo.com I am 100% sure that is not it. If it were, sending mail without using mailman to [EMAIL PROTECTED] would result in the mail arriving at localhost. It does not. The mail arrives at the machine which handles foo.com, on another network. Its _only_ when I send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] using mailman does this happen. Thanks for the reply. J -- Justin F.

I just tested again and my MTA sends the mail to localhost when sending to [EMAIL PROTECTED] without mailman. However, sending mail to say [EMAIL PROTECTED] sends the mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] on a remote host. So my MTA doesn't think it can relay to foo.com.. Anyhow, this is an exim problem not a mailman problem. Sorry for wasting everyone's time. J -- Justin F.
