Hi all,

I am new to the Mailman. I've recently configured a new Debian server using Mailman (ver 2.0.11) and I have just one problem that I cannot resolve. It is the %(confirmurl)s variable found in the verify.txt file. When an email is sent out to verify subscription to a list, the email looks like this:

#######################

Mailing list subscription confirmation notice for mailing list Testone

We have received a request from 192.168.2.254 for subscription of your email address, "dsampson01@nospam.cox.net", to the testone@nospam.lists.dawnsign.com mailing list. To confirm that you want to be added to this mailing list, simply reply to this message, keeping the Subject: header intact. Or visit this web page:

%(confirmurl)s <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Or include the following line -- and only the following line -- in a message to testone-request@nospam.lists.dawnsign.com:

confirm 800039

Note that simply sending a `reply' to this message should work from most mail readers, since that usually leaves the Subject: line in the right form (additional "Re:" text in the Subject: is okay).

If you do not wish to be subscribed to this list, please simply disregard this message. If you think you are being maliciously subscribed to the list, or have any other questions, send them to testone-admin@nospam.lists.dawnsign.com.

How do I fix so an actual URL appears instead of the %(confirmurl)s variable name?

In addition, how do I replace the actual IP address of 192.168.2.254 (which is the IP address of the internal firewall NIC) with the correct external IP address on our firewall?
