messages from kmail are refused by the suse mailing list server
I think it's kmail fault; I have few accounts on kmail, and it blews messages to the list as it sets return-path to my primary address (which is not subscribed to the list), so they get refused. In the reply from suse server I see the from and reply-to address suse@farmexim.ro, which is good, but return-path is wrong (is my primary address), so it's refusing the message saying I'm not subscribed... I send this from mozilla's mail client, but it's slow, and I want to take all my mail from one client... It annoys me as I don't see any setting which would change return-path... this is kmail from kde2... anybody run into this? dragos

Every damned version of kmail for the last 3 or 4 versions of SuSE puts in a header of SuSE, which of course is not yours, and makes it impossible to contact the list. Get after Lenz or somebody and make them fix it. Why do you think I use Windows to talk to the list? --doug

I think the problem here is that the original poster joined the list from one ID (user1@isp1.com) but he wants to send mail to the list from another ID (user2@isp2.com) Not possible because of the safeguards the list has against allowing non-members to post to the list.

it's funny that I have to explain this over and over... about what you sugest it may be the problem, it isn't. I have it like this: 1)I have a primary account lets say dragos@my-work.ro (yeah, I'm in Romania) which works 2) made new account suse@my-work.ro in kmail (also made it on the server, which I graciously run) 3)set up folder and stuff to receive mail separately for the mailing list, etc... 4) sent a mail to the list (selected the corresponding id from kmail for suse list); it came back saying I'm not subscribed: the "from" and "reply to" were ok, but kmail made "return path" my primary address (dragos@mywork.ro) and I was refused (rightfully) by the mailing list server Now I'm sure that if I use kmail only for my mailing list addres it would work, but I don't. dragos Bruce Marshall wrote:

my suse list address is suse@farmexim.ro; my primary address is
dragos.delcea@farmexim.ro.
when it sends the mail, kmail it incorectly sets "return path" to
dragos.delcea@farmexim.ro, which is not subscribed to the list...
I tryed making a filter for outgoing messages, no luck...
I have no way of setting return path to something resonable...
below is the bounce from suse on a test message I sent:

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at lists2.suse.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.
This is posted with an adress that isn't the default in kmail. It's just a test to see if it gets through. If you read this, it works :)

It appears that this was a problem with older versions of Kmail. Upgrade to the latest version and it should fix it (at least it did for me). Cheers, Chris. -- Chris Clarke security@cfourconsulting.com http://cfourconsulting.com

hello Francis, probably you made your suse mailing list address default...I did not, and when I try to send a message to the list the "from" and "reply to" fields are ok, but kmail (I think) is playng games with me and sets the "return path" to my primary address, which the suse server won't like because it's not subscribed... dragos PS the account is configured ok, i can get the messages from the list, I even can send messages to the list, only that they get refused ;( Francis wrote:
Every damned version of kmail for the last 3 or 4 versions of SuSE puts in a header of SuSE, which of course is not yours, and makes it impossible to contact the list. Get after Lenz or somebody and make them fix it. Why do you think I use Windows to talk to the list? --doug
What ? I use kmail with Süse Linux 7.2 (and before this 7.1 and 7.0 - with older Süse versions I was only using Netscape Messenger...) and I never had any problem with this list, any other list... I tried kmail with other Linux distros and all worked well too... I really do not understand the problem you encounter. the kmail configuration is easy, just take the time (5 minutes...) to do it...
