All -
I've got some more details as to what I'm seeing when trying to setup an
umbrella list.
"List A" = Parent List <lista at ibm.com>
"List B" = Child List <listb at ibm.com>
Right now I have List B <listb at ibm.com> as a member of List A. When I send
an email to List A <lista at ibm.com> (The parent list) I see the following:
* The members of "List A" get the message
* The subject is "[List A] blah blah blah"
* The footer is the List A defined footer
That same message shows up in List B as follows:
* The members of "List B" get the message
* The subject is "[List A][List B] blah blah blah"
* The footer is the List A footer AND the List B footer
So how do I setup Mailman so that it knows List B <listb at ibm.com> is
another mailing list and that it should not append a list tag in the subject
or attache a footer to the list?
In the Mailman configs for each list it's setup as follows:
List A: umbrella_list = 1
umbrella_member_suffix = '-owner'
List B: umbrella_list = 0
umbrella_member_suffix = '-owner'
Any help would be great. Is what I'm trying to do beyond the ability of
Mailman 2.0?
