Category: mail delivery Group: Mailman 2.1 Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Submitted By: Richard Barrett (ppsys) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: Sendmail mailer in Python

Initial Comment: This patch provide a Python implementation (with C wrapper) of a Sendmail mailer, if Sendmail is your MTA of choice, which removes the necessity of maintining an aliases database on your Mailman server. All subject to a bunch of conditions most prominent of which is that the server has to be pretty much dedicated to MM.

This patch draws on an original contribution by David Champion <dgc@uchicago.edu> which is included in the contrib directory of the Mailman 2.1b distribution as mm-handler.

See the README.SENDMAIL.mailer installed by this patch for differences between this and David's Perl original and more information of what you are getting into if you use this patch.

Versions of the patch for MM 2.0.13 and MM 2.1b5 are available.

This patch requires patch 644797 to be installed before it.

In the MM build directory say:

patch -p1 < patch-filename

mailer-2.1b6-0.1.patch is MM 2.1b6 compatible. It also folds the case of listname and servername for compaiblity with MMs naive belief that listnames are case all lower case. case "(Email addresses are not case sensitive, but they are sensitive to almost everything else :-)"
