Actually, 'post' log entries say that the message was not only 'received' by Mailman, but that it made it all the way through and was sent out. >SMTP shows >that it delivered to recipients. (If exact messages would be helpful, >let me know and I'll grab them from the logs. This means that the outgoing message was successfully passed to and accepted by the MTA. It is a matter of faith that the recipients of the message as sent to the MTA are in fact the list members who should receive it. At this point, it's up to the MTA to deliver it, and if we accept that the recipient list given to the MTA is correct and doesn't include the 'announce' address, the only thing that would come back would be a bounce which should be returned to the announce-bounces address. >These reports are from >memory, but I looked at the various logs several times before >resorting to asking for help. :) Thank you. The smtp log entry relating to delivery of a post looks something like Feb 11 17:17:09 2006 (1570) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> smtp for 66 recips, completed in 0.887 seconds. The important things are the message-id (<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> in this case) and the number of recipients (66 here) equal to the number of message mode subscribers with delivery enabled minus the sender if the sender is 'not metoo' and minus any subscribers that are 'nodups' and mentioned in To: or Cc: of the post. The important thing about the message-id of the post is that it not be of the form <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, because that indicates a Mailman internally generated message and not a post. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
