[Mailman-Users] Archives without the archives?

It looks to me like the mail sent by Mailman would have to end up getting its HELO command from smtplib.py's _get_fqdn_hostname(); that uses gethostname() and then gethostbyaddr() to come up with a hostname. Perhaps something is wrong with your machine configuration such that gethostname/gethostb

I was wondering the same thing more or less. Would Mailman drop the domain if the "Preferred Domain for this list" is blank? The HELO command is supposed to identify the connecting machine as I recall. The connecting machine is the SMTP portion of the MTA, right? Presumably, that would mean that

Well, let's see: the error message says: All recipients refused: (501, '5.0.0 helo requires domain address') That seems to me to point directly to "no domain address" in the HELO command. Is it possible you haven't set your 'originating domain', or that some admin or subscriber address doesn't
