I just started using mailman, and am hoping somebody can help me with a problem I am having.
I have virtual domains setup on my server, and I can get mailman working with them, except for one thing.
I manually update the config.db using bin/config_list, and setup all the paths for the virtual domain. The problem comes in when I try to use a different posting address. for example, say I set up a list name: test_domain1.com
Well, the posting address is test_domain1.com@domain1.com, and it works just fine. However, I would like to use test@domain1.com. When I do that, I get a bounce from Mailman saying the message was addressed implicitly.
So, either, there is an option in config.db I can't change with bin/config_list, or the setting that checks the address is stored elsewhere.
I looked into bin/withlist, but I unfortunately do not know Python, so I don't even know where to start with it. I was able to do a little with it, but I don't know all the objects I can use. I was able to get GetEmailRequest to display, only because it was mentioned in the examples.
Thanks for any help

First of all dude, make an attempt at a Subject.... It helps us help you, and it helps others later on when they seach the archives. That said, here is an easy answer to the problem.
In the web-admin under Privacy options: "Alias names (regexps) which qualify as explicit... " put in the email address you want your list to accept.

Thanks! And sorry about leaving out the subject.
I have one more question. Can I change the address the list uses when it sends out reminders and welcome messages?
Thanks,
Ryan

Web-admin, General Options page, near the bottom: "Host name this list prefers."
That lets you change the host part of the automated email messages. If that is not enough, then turn off the welcome messages and the reminders (options in the web-admin). Then you can write scripts that handle both the welcome messages and the reminders.
Look in ~mailman/bin/.. for commands that will let you dump out to a file the email addresses of a list. You can also grep through the ~mailman/logs/.. for new subscriptions and use that to send out your own welcome messages for specific lists (if you are so inclined)
