I've been trying some things, but I'm stuck. I don't know how do set the debug-level for postfix,
debug_peer_level = 2 debug_peer_list = 127.0.0.1 debug_peer_list = ace-electronics.be
I tried this, but I specified suse.com, as the mails from this list come from there, but I didn't see anything more in the log. I modified this to your suggested settings (I left debug level at 4, is this more verbose ?). I'll wait and see.
| In multidrop mode, destination headers are processed as | follows: First, fetchmail looks for the Received: header | (or whichever one is specified by the `envelope' option) | to determine the local recipient address. If the mail is | addressed to more than one recipient, the Received line | won't contain any information regarding recipient | addresses.
And you have:
fetchmail: found Received address `koenraad.lelong@belgacom.net'
But your local domain in postfix is probably ace-electronics.be...
I don't know, I can only make guesses.
It's indeed ace-electronics.be, but I made an alias (I'm using a virtual domain) that should redirect koenraad.lelong@belgacom.net to k.lelong@ace-electronics.be. B.T.W. Sorry I replied to you personally. I'm using Netscape, seems not to know how to handel lists (or I didn't set it up right ;-) ), so you have to keep your head at it. -- Met vriendelijke groeten, Koenraad Lelong R&D Manager ACE electronics n.v.

Ah, but postfix must be told about it, not only in /etc/aliases.

I understand; no, it doesn't. I use a procmail rule to avoid that mistake - well, actually, three: :0f * ^X-Mailinglist: suse-linux-e | /usr/bin/formail -bfi "Reply-To:suse-linux-e@suse.com" :0 a $HOME/Mail/lists/suse-linux-e :0 * ^TO_suse-linux-e@suse.com $HOME/Mail/lists/in_dups :0 $HOME/Mail/lists/in_elresto First, mail comming from the list server, is separated, and a reply-to header is added (with formail). Then, those that were sent to the list (the direct copy) goes to the duplicate folder. What remains, after every list is filtered, are personal replies, daemons, and undetected spam and viruses. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson

I'm not using /etc/aliases. I'm using an MySQL backend, I only have 'virtual' users. But I think I have complicated the setup. You mentioned I should not run the two servers in parallel, I could get removed from the list. So I created a free mail account (that belgacom.net thing) and used that to test. I think I'm going to try it again like before, those mails from the list were getting to me via the postmaster, they were not bounced. Or am I missing something ?

Only if mail bounces back :-)

Yes, I think I saw on your log the other day that they were sent to the postmaster because (probably) postfix found no recipient. So, trying with debug info (probably for the local interface, 127.0.01) should help to pinpoint why. You should run your tests using test-list ampersand SuSE.com, and that way your working SLE subscription doesn't get compromised. Otherwise, a procmail recipe on the postmaster account (or better a separate postmaster for each multidrop box) would catch those. But I'm guessing that in your case that might be a lot of work (too many users?).
[private answers] I understand; no, it doesn't. I use a procmail rule to avoid that mistake - well, actually, three:

Er... no, I would not automate that, even if possible. Reason: if a user sets up the "vacation" program, auto answers would go back to the list, creating a loop... if the SuSE server is fast at that time, and yours is as well, you will get thousands of mad screaming list-people in a question of minutes :-p Better to leave that to each user on his own.

True; maybe with extended log info you can see why. I can not help with multidrop boxes, no experience there. Read carefully the man page for multidrop boxes, maybe something jumps to mind. -- Cheers, Carlos Robinson
