It turns out there was a Bug/Patch at <https://bugs.launchpad.net/mailman/+bug/328907> which is related to this. I've fixed that for MM 2.1.14 with the attached patch which allows you to specify VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_HOST in mm_cfg.py, and if you do, it will be appended to the local addresses in virtual-mailman.
Great! Assuming you meant VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN (that's what the patch refers to),
Yes, that's what I meant. Sorry.
I have two questions (sorry ;( hopefully these will be the last on this topic)...
In order to accomplish my goal, of lists working as listname@example.com, but the local domain in the mail headers showing as listname@lists.example.com instead of the postfix host name of listname@smtp.example.com,
- Would I set
VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN = 'lists'
or
VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN = 'lists.example.com'
Maybe the comments in mm_cfg.py for this option should provide an example for something other than just plain 'localhost'?
All of these would depend on Postfix. If you set
VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN = 'lists'
you will get virtual maps like
listname@example.com listname@lists
and if you set
VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN = 'lists.example.com'
you will get virtual maps like
listname@example.com listname@lists.example.com
and if you set
VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN = 'i_dont_know_what_im_doing'
you will get virtual maps like
listname@example.com listname@i_dont_know_what_im_doing
I would hope that that would be clear from the comment added to Defaults.py(.in). I'll add a bit more to try to clarify it.
and
- Does this require any mods to postfix/main.cf?
Probably. What I think you want is
VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN = 'lists.example.com'
plus whatever is necessary in Postfix to ensure that Postfix treats lists.example.com as a local domain, i.e. it must directly or indirectly be in mydestination.
If you were to put
VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN = 'lists'
in mm_cfg.py, I'm gussing that Postfix would append mydomain and try to deliver to listname@lists.smtp.example.com in your case which would probably fail, unless you also added lists to mydestination in which case, Postfix might be able to deliver to listname@lists and would identify it as such in logs and Received: headers.
