Questions about a specific MTA are more likely to get good answers if directed to a list or other resource devoted to that MTA. I know your question comes directly from our installation manual, but that material may well have been contributed by one person who isn't here now. Having read that section, all I can tell you is this has to do with delivering mail to the site list 'mailman' and it's owner 'mailman-owner' when 'mailman' is also a local user. I think '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' means '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' where 'example.com' is your domain. I haven't a clue about the broader meaning of those lines.

There're a lot of solutions how to solve this. As for exim i do this like that: mailman_router: driver = accept condition = MAILMAN_ENABLED require_files = MAILMAN_VAR/lists/$local_part/config.pck local_part_suffix_optional local_part_suffix = -bounces : -bounces+* : \ -confirm+* : -join : -leave : \ -owner : -request : -admin transport = mailman_transport Maybe your MTA has some like that? -- Oleg D. -- don't believe every word people use to say, they might be wrong. -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
