Your question is a very basic. If you don't understand what the documentation is trying to describe you might want to read some intro-level mail-related documentation.
The question appears simple. Maybe it is. Maybe, however, it only appears to be simple. I've been working in Zope for years, and have done a lot in email, actually.
Additionally, when debugging it's always good to look at the appropriate logs and provide the relevant entries from those as well as error messages you received, as part of your question. A bounced message will, generally, tell you why - which can be enlightening. The mail logs on your system will provide other hints as to what's going wrong. Obviously there's an assumption that you have tried to resolve your problem based on the log/error information you've gotten.
Of course. And I did that. Here's what I found: server167# grep "rejoice@rejoice.2012.vi" /usr/local/zope/instance2/log/Z2.log Nothing. Error Log (in Zope TTW interface) Nothing. Thank you for responding. Here is my question once again: On this page (of a Zope product): http://iungo.org/products/MailBoxer/ there is the instruction to send an email to this address: |foo@yourMailHost.yourDomain What exactly does that mean? Can someone give me an example? The list is called "rejoice", the Web site in question is called "rejoice.2012.vi" and I tried this address: "rejoice@2012.vi". It didn't work. So I tried this address: "rejoice@rejoice.2012.vi". On that one, I didn't get a bounce but I didn't show up in the Properties::maillist, either, nor did I receive a welcome message :( Frankly, I find the tokens "yourMailHost" and "yourDomain" terribly unclear. TIA, beno
+-------[ beno ]---------------------- | | Thank you for responding. Here is my question once again: Since you haven't worked out yet, I'll be explicit. Reposting your question over and over and over and over and over isn't going to get you any more responses. In fact it's more likely to piss off anyone who would be inclined to answer at all. Furthermore, the questions you're asking are; a) Not appropriate for this mailing list b) Should be addressed to the author of the product in question. If and when you have the product correctly configured, AND you get some indication from Zope that it is not functioning AND the author of said product indicates that it is a problem with Zope itself, ONLY THEN is this likely to be the correct forum for questions about a product. When you get to this stage, you will need to include the relevant errors from logs (in this case including MAIL LOGS) or otherwise. -- Andrew Milton akm@theinternet.com.au

When I look at the subject, yelling in uppercase letters....in the early 90s I learned at university that this is a clear misbehavior. I won't mention all the other "violations" of the good old well-known rules how to a mailinglist. Beno, you deserve the Millenium award for being the worst participant of this list ever. The triviality of your question, your unteachable manner...perhaps one last hint: don't use Zope, don't touch computers, Before posting again, first read a document like: <http://www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/usenet/dont.html> -aj

Er, yeah, right, like you're going to understand any of the help you've been given... Arrogant? Little arrogant expecting the people on this list to bend over backwards to help you when you've done sweet f a to actually help anyone (including yourself) here... How about actually listening to the advice you've been given and using Mailman and Apache to solve the two problems you keep whining about?
The question appears simple. Maybe it is. Maybe, however, it only appears to be simple. I've been working in Zope for years, and have done a lot in email, actually.
You've been working with Zope for years? oh dear god...

Wow, like we didn't get it the first time. Hey! A Subject line with CAPS, I better drop all my work and tell my customers to get lost for the day 'cos I need to help you NOW, dammit... *sigh* Chris -- Simplistix - Content Management, Zope & Python Consulting - http://www.simplistix.co.uk

I think you are totally out of line. Both Andreas and Jens have contributed alot to the community, including being often the only ones to respond to mails on this list at all. Maybe you have a problem with their characters, but that's really your problem. They are both Germans and Germans tend to be direct and less socially soothing -- I am speaking out of experience. But that's just another part of Open Source Communities. You have to deal with mentalities and social behavior of people from all places on this planet. BTW, if you want really friendly help, pay someone to give it to you. ;-) Regards, Stephan -- Stephan Richter CBU Physics & Chemistry (B.S.) / Tufts Physics (Ph.D. student) Web2k - Web Software Design, Development and Training
