The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Paul Menzel <address@concealed>]

Dear experts,


I am using virtual hosts and the domain name for lists and users is the
same (for example address@concealed and address@concealed). But I
think this is not important for this question.

I want to configure the MTA to handle the following setup, but I can not
find a solution.

According to the sample /etc/aliases on [1] an alias is set up for
address@concealed being handled by the provided program queue.

1. Is it possible to set the configuration parameter listmaster [2] to
<address@concealed>? How would the MTA need to be configured? As
far as I see it this address would result in some kind of loop?

Could be said that Sympa is routing the address@concealed address?

2. Is this how the parameter interact with each other?

The value of listmaster_email is used as the address in /etc/aliases and
probably in some auto-generated (contact) information. Since the program
queue gets still address@concealed as a parameter, Sympa than looks
up the value of the configuration parameter listmaster and sends the
message to the addresses listed there.


Thanks,

Paul
