Hmm, well this isn't mailboxer -- this is the ezmlm program that comes with qmail. It's qmail's list management.
hi, I have made this point to Paul off list.
Here's my synical guess: you asked you ISP to help you setup mailboxer for mail lists with qmail and Zope. They heard "mail lists" and "qmail", hit their automatic button (which turns off the parts of the brain that listen for unfamiliar data, and in fact shuts down all further communication for a default period of time before a reset). Unfortunately, their automatic button doesn't give you what you need.
very cynical indeed. ;/ we (Zettai.net) are the ISP and we do know what we're doing and we set Paul's Mailboxer up correctly, as we have with other clients, its just that I believe Paul has confused the two.
I've not messed with qmail in an ISP/restricted environment, but here's a couple things that could put this within your power to solve:
1) read up on qmail's aliases, the "-" (dash) notation for lists 2) use the dash notation to create an email address in a domain (name) for which you have access (which may only be a permutation on your user name) 3) read the qmail/mailboxer doc here: http://zope.org/Members/adytumsolutions 4) experiment with smtp2zope.py
yes, he is set up correctly. we have other clients with the same setup reporting success with MailBoxer. Its a confusion issue. <--> george donnelly ~ http://www.zettai.net/ ~ "Quality Zope Hosting" Shared and Dedicated Zope Hosting ~ Zope Servers ~ Zope Websites Yahoo, AIM: zettainet ~ MSN: zettainet@hotmail.com ~ ICQ: 51907738
