Hi, all:
I installed mailman2.1.6 with sendmail8.13 on fedora core3 box.
I saw in the root mail some messages like this:
The following addresses had permanent fatal errors ----- <nui@abc.org> <nuin@genedrift.org> (reason: 550-Verification failed for <mailman-bounces@localhost.localdomain> <mailman-bounces@localhost.localdomain>)
----- Transcript of session follows ----- ... while talking to abc.org.:

============================================= I guess that is something wrong with my MTA configuration. for other mailman related account: mailman-request@ex.com mailman-owner@ex.com .. are correct with my domain name "ex.com".
Any enlightment?
Thanks.

I guess that is the mailman bounce, not specific to the list. domain name is not added to mailman-bounce .......... Anyone can help? thanks

What is the host_name attribute on the General Options page of the mailman list?

I don't think so, unless you really don't want it to verify sender domains.
The date and time from the above messages indicate they refer to a password reminders.
If VIRTUAL_HOSTS_OVERVIEW is on, password reminders are collected for all users and lists and sent once for each user in lists in each virtual domain, and they are sent from the site list bounce address (mailman-bounces) @ the domain they come from. Otherwise, they are sent from the site list bounces address @DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST.
So in your case, either VIRTUAL_HOSTS_OVERVIEW is off and DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST is localhost.localdomain in mm_cfg.py/Defaults.py or VIRTUAL_HOSTS_OVERVIEW is on and you have at least one list with members and with host_name = 'localhost.localdomain'.
