Re: MailMan/qmail - missing headers
On Wed, Mar 07, 2001 at 05:11:52AM +1300, Graham Guttocks wrote: I've just installed the MailMan MLM on my qmail server with fastforward support for /etc/aliases. Everything seems to work fine except that the messages that MailMan sends out are missing some headers such as "Date:" and "Message-ID:". The result is that the destination MTA has to fill them in. Even if MailMan doesn't provide these headers, shouldn't qmail add them in? Has anyone else had this problem with MailMan? qmail doesn't touch them as Mailman sends the messages via SMTP to localhost rather than using qmail-inject. I've seen this problem myself and at some point intend to hack Mailman to use qmail-inject rather than SMTP; only my lack of any knowledge of Python has stopped me so far.
