OK, I said I'd take care of this, and I will. My apologies if this is
going out to too many people, but with so many mailing lists involved,
I'd rather that this get to everyone who needs to see it than miss a
number of important addressees.
We need to clean up the @xemacs.org addresses being hosted on @tux.org.
Right now, they are merged in with all other @tux.org e-mail addresses.
The first list that follows is the list of aliases defined by the xemacs
aliases file. As aliases, they are indistinguishable from any other
e-mail addresses coming onto this e-mail host. One problem is, that
some of these conflict with other aliases, specifically:
MAILER-DAEMON, hostmaster, mailman, mailman-owner, postmaster, webmaster
Another problem is that [EMAIL PROTECTED] users are being sent SPAM to
@xemacs.org mail addresses, and don't like it.
The second list below is that of the e-mail addresses in the alias
definitions who are in the @xemacs.org domain. Some of them don't even
exist!
I am going to fix the problem by making @xemacs.org into a partial
virtual domain, rather than having it [as now] as another name for
@tux.org.
QUESTIONS:
(1) Are all the mailing lists in List 1, below, still needed and used?
More specifically, are there any I should throw out? [And if any of
them bounces, I am throwing it out - or at least commenting it out.]
(2) Are the aliases in /etc/mail/aliases-xemacs still valid? Are there
any translations that need to change?
(3) Are there any more e-mail addresses that should respond to
@xemacs.org than the ones listed below? Because if I don't explicitly
include them, they will no longer be part of the @xemacs.org domain.
(4) Are there real e-mail addresses that should be associated with the
alias targets that don't exist (in List 2)?
(5) What are your maintenance needs for these mailing lists?
(6) Is there any need to make this a full virtual domain, so that any
and ALL e-mail sent by certain users will appear to be coming from
@xemacs.org?
Thanks!
