mailman mailing list problem
Hello,

We've been running gossamer mail for about three years without any problems, however there are some users under the same domain which are subscribed to a Mailman mailing list (www.list.org).

The problem is that mail is sent to four users but only one recieves it.

Here are the logs in sendmail:

i23GUU113071: from=<banyoles-bounces@domain.net>, size=2300, class=-60, nrcpts=4, msgid=<DJEFJMNBCPLDCKJEDLAOIEJOJGAA.libero@domain.net>, bodytype=8BITMIME, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=llla207-a.servidoresdns.net [xxx.xx.xx.xx]
Mar 3 15:30:32 comexus sendmail[13071]: i23GUU113071: to=<user1@mail.net>, delay=00:00:01, mailer=virthostmail, pri=230300, stat=queued
Mar 3 15:30:32 comexus sendmail[13071]: i23GUU113071: to=<user2@mail.net>, delay=00:00:01, mailer=virthostmail, pri=230300, stat=queued
Mar 3 15:30:32 comexus sendmail[13071]: i23GUU113071: to=<user3@mail.net>, delay=00:00:01, mailer=virthostmail, pri=230300, stat=queued
Mar 3 15:30:32 comexus sendmail[13071]: i23GUU113071: to=<user4@mail.net>, delay=00:00:01, mailer=virthostmail, pri=230300, stat=queued
Mar 3 15:33:49 comexus sendmail[13229]: i23GUU113071: to=<user1@mail.net>,<user2@mail.net>,<user3@mail.net>,<user4@mail.net>, delay=00:03:18, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=virthostmail, pri=320300, relay=plaestany.net, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (i23GXnm13459 Message accepted for delivery)

So it seems that the message is delivered properly, however only one user has recieved it.

How could we solve that issue? It is quite strange...

Thanks a lot,

Narcís

For such problems, you need to get the headers of the email which isn't getting delivered properly. The most likely solution is that you need to tune your mail server to insert the appropriate headers to the email (which lets incoming.pl know who the mail was actually delivered to), and possibly modify incoming.pl to work with that change.

There's quite a few threads about this (search for things like incoming.pl, delivered-to). If you get me the header of the email that's not getting through to the other users, I can tell you what the problem is.

This are the headers from the only user ho recieved the message.
About half a year ago we installed mailscanner on our server, could be the problem related to it? I don't know if the problem already existed before installing it. We've been notified about it today.
Thanks a lot,

Can you tell me which email addresses are what (sender, mailing list, intended recipient)? I see you have:
Delivered-To: domain.net.banyoles@llla207-a.servidoresdns.net

but from the looks of it, banyoles isn't the user, but the mailing list address.

sender: banyoles-bounces@domain.net (reply to libero@domain.net)
mailing list: I don't know the name. If it is necessary I'll request it, no problem.
intended recipients: user1@mail.net, user2@mail.net, user3@mail.net, user4@mail.net

I've hided real domains to preserve user's privacy, if you need them I can email you without any problems.

What I cannot understand is why the mail is only delivered to one user when the maillogs say it is been sent to 4 users.

Thanks a lot for your help and fast replies,

NArcís

Can you email/PM me the original headers with who the email was delivered to? I can't quite decipher it as is.
