Hi,
just a simple question/suggestion:
If sympa receives a message for a list that doesn't exist,
the message is simply renamed to BAD-... and silently deleted
after some time.
Since I have configured my MTA to pass _every_ mail sent
to a certain domain ( ...@lists.danisch.de ) to sympa, it might
happen, that messages can't be assigned to a mailing list, e.g.
if the address was misspelled.
1. Is there any way to cause sympa to reply with an error message
like "No such mailing list..." ?
2. Is there any security problem when the sender can send emails
with any address to sympa (i.e. can addresses be misinterpreted)?
regards
Hadmut Danisch
