Re: [Mailman-Users] host name
Hi Richard, Thanks for the tip it works great! When receiving mail from the lists,why does the To: header reflect the real host name e.g. To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], instead of To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Where lists is the hostname i want to appear. Is it sendmail's masquerading option or mailman's?

Re: [Mailman-Users] host name
I was able to remove the hostname by reconfiguring my sendmail, but the mailing list mainpage ../mailman/admin/listinfo shows the line "(Send questions and comments to mailman-owner@cebu.)" where "cebu" is the host name of my machine, how will I change this to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" or "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"?
