Hi Richard,

Thanks for the tip it works great!

When receiving mail from the lists,why does the To: header reflect the real host
name e.g. To: techteam at cebu.codewan.com.ph,
instead of To: techteam at lists.codewan.com.ph. Where lists is the hostname i want
to appear. Is it sendmail's masquerading option
or mailman's?
