how do I access the unsubscribe email addresses?
Where are unsubscribe email addresses stored? also, same with the bounced email addresses. Where are they?
Thanks,
Dan

No mail to any Mailman addresses is "stored" in the conventional sense.
For an MTA that uses aliases, each list has a set of aliases like
list: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman post list" list-admin: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman admin list" list-bounces: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman bounces list" list-confirm: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman confirm list" list-join: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman join list" list-leave: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman leave list" list-owner: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman owner list" list-request: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman request list" list-subscribe: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe list" list-unsubscribe: "|/path/to/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe list"
Which causes the mail to be piped to the mail/mailman wrapper and processed by the appropriate (post, admin, bounces, etc.) script. The script in turn queues the message for further processing. For example, posts and -owner mail is queued in Mailman's in/ queue for processing by IncomingRunner; -admin and -bounces mail is queued in Mailman's bounces/ queue for processing by BounceRunner, and -join, -leave, -subscribe, -unsubscribe, -confirm and -request mail is queued in Mailman's commands/ queue for processing by CommandRunner.
Some MTAs do this programmatically instead of with aliases, but the result is the same.
