Category: bounce detection Group: 2.1 (stable) Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Nick Lange (ninja_k) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Empty Bounces Initial Comment: I have a mailing list, X managed by Mailman 2.1.9 on FreeBSD 5.3 with Courier as our MTA. All the member addresses of X are valid. The owner address is also valid. We allow non-member postings as well. Every time we send an e-mail to the list, we get an e-mail with no subject, and no body from mailman-bounces. If I turn on Uncaught bounce notification, the message that is forwarded has no contents. The logs show: Aug 21 11:01:12 2007 (1493) bounce message w/no discernable addresses: None Aug 21 11:01:12 2007 (1493) forwarding unrecognized, message-id: n/a Aug 21 11:01:12 2007 (1493) bounce message w/no discernable addresses: None Aug 21 11:01:12 2007 (1493) forwarding unrecognized, message-id: n/a ... I'm not quite sure what is going on, but I am fairly certain that this is a bug. ----------------------------------------------------------------------

Message: Logged In: YES user_id=1123998 Originator: NO this
is a bug.
Maybe, but not necessarily. What do your Courier logs show? It is even possible that one of your list members has a misconfigured autoresponder of some kind. In any case, Mailman is receiving this empty bounce message, and something (presumably outside Mailman) is sending it.
If I turn on Uncaught bounce notification, the message that is forwarded has no contents.
What are the headers of this message, or are there no headers either? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=1778960&group_id=103
