Re: [Mailman-Users] subscribed address that forwards to secondary address can't be identified
Ok, I think I have what I need. I checked the mail logs and see that the header is showing the list name and the subscriber address. Now, I need to see what happens when I set a forward and send a message. On Mon, Apr 7, 2014 at 12:24 PM, Christopher Adams wrote: > Thank you all for your suggestions.

Re: [Mailman-Users] subscribed address that forwards to secondary address can't be identified
Thank you all for your suggestions. I have set up VERP via Mailman in mm_cfg.py. I logged in to the list admin and followed guidelines about enabling Personalization. I referred to this: http://wiki.list.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=4030545 I may be missing something, but I don't see anything under 'Non-digest options' for enabling Personalization. Does it just refer to custom headers, footers, etc? It seems that you can do that anyways without the setting allowing Personalization in mm_cfg.py. Also, when enabling something in mm_cfg.py, the guidelines say to use 1=true/yes, but then I see it looking something like the following. Maybe this is part of the problem.

VERP will nail the problem quickly. I have relatively small lists on my server and leave VERP turned on.

This will send an email to every user, giving them the email address they are subscribed with and their password (I wish there was a way to make the monthly messages NOT have the password, but when sent as a password reminder include the password). Otherwise, it is a matter of just looking through the list of subscribers trying to find out what address might be theirs.

Re: [Mailman-Users] subscribed address that forwards to secondary address can't be identified
This isn't the best solution for sure, but I start disecting and searching list members till I find something that's close...it usually works for that instance. If I have jan.mur...@somewhere.us.mail.com, I'll find all my "jan", "murphy", 'Somewhere" and usually I find the culprit. If I fail there, I send the person an email and ask if there is an old email that could be forwarding to the new email. w Wayne Cook wc...@mycoachonline.com http://www.mycoachonline.com/ --- I've flown faster than the speed of sound, stared down a shark while standing on the ocean floor and launched men into space.

Christopher Adams writes: > A person is receiving mail through a list. The address that they are > currently using (@gmail.com) is not subscribed to the list. Change your list to personalize the message, specifically to add a link to the user's personal options page in the footer. Of course you can't always do that, depending on the purpose of the list, but that's one possible way to investigate (and solve, if the person wants to unsubscribe themselves!) the issue. -- 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

The first step is to examine the Received: headers of the post as received by the gmail user. This may tell you exactly what address Mailman sent to. If not, it will tell you what MX server the message went to from the Mailman server which will help narrow the possibilities. There's no way that Mailman or probably even your local MTA can know that any particular address they send to ultimately forwards to gmail. If all else fails, and you have the ability, you can enable Mailman's VERP. Then each message from Mailman will have the envelope from and Sender: and Errors-To: headers with the address LISTNAME-bounces-user=example.com@your.domain where u...@example.com is the address sent to. -- Mark Sapiro The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, Californiabetter use your sense - B.

Re: [Mailman-Users] subscribed address that forwards to secondary address can't be identified
Does it arrive as a forward? If so, it might be possible to view the entire message header and trace it that way. Web-based email being what it is, I don't know how much or little gmail retains of the message headers of forwards or whether gmail allows those message headers to be inspected. If the gmail web interface doesn't permit viewing the message headers, gmail may allow the message to be saved as text and I'm guessing that would typically include the full message headers.
