Hi,
i would like to run Mailman hosting several mailing lists with several domains. An example:
- two ml. : test@domain1.com, test@domain2.com
- the internal naming is: domain1.test and domain2.test
- i configure the MTA to accept test@domain1.com and test@domain2.com and to route email for these ml. to domain1.test and to domain2.test
How can i instruct MailMan to hide the internal naming in welcome messages to subscribe users?
Thank you!
Lorenzo
I agree. I think this is an RFE. The "internal name" of the list can be hidden from most users who visit the web page(s), because mailman provides the opportunity to edit the HTML for each list. However, no such mechanism is provided for modifying the 'system default' welcome message for each group (one can only add information to it..unless you modify the template for ALL mailing lists).
For instance, I have two jokes@somedomain lists running at two different (nonprimary) domains...but internally one is called "jokes@primarydomain" (the first one) and the second one is called "jokers@primarydomain". The welcome message uses the "host name this list prefers" option in the general config to define the list names as "jokes@domain1" (good) and "jokers@domain2" (bad). Basically...a simple "alias" config option should fix it (i.e. in the field where we can only make "case-changes" to the public name...we should be able to define the public name of the list separately from the actual (internal) name of the list)
