I see the message in the Mailman smtp log going to the list and the two list owners. I also see the message directed to the list owner address in the MTA logs. However, the message is not actually being delivered to the list owner via the alias. I have discovered that, using owner addresses outside of our subnet work for getting confirmation approvals. However, they don't for addresses inside our subnet.
This is what I think I understand from the above.
- The notice is sent as expected by Mailman to LISTNAME-owner@...
- The message to LISTNAME-owner@... is received by Mailman and resent by Mailman to all the owner and moderator addresses.
- Those owner and moderator addresses outside your local subnet receive the notice, but those inside your local subnet do not.
- Presumably, the same is true for any mail sent to the LISTNAME-owner@... address, i.e., the non-delivery issue does not depend on the mail to LISTNAME-owner@... having been generated by Mailman itself.
Is this understanding correct?
Do the 'inside' owner/moderator addresses have a fully qualified domain name?
That is strange because the owner addresses are deliverable and receive mail through list traffic via Mailman.
Owners and moderators do not receive list posts. Only members receive list posts. There is no connection within Mailman between an owner/moderator address and a list member address which may be the same. See http://wiki.list.org/x/5YA9.
In any case, if my understanding above is correct, and if the owner/moderator 'inside' addresses are fully qualified, this is an MTA issue, not a Mailman issue.
