The issue is that something in postfix on collab1 (where the
lists.fedoraproject.org mailing lists run) and/or bastion (which
serves as a central mail gateway) is rewriting
"<mailinglist>(a)lists.fedoraproject.org" addresses in the message
headers to "<mailinglist>(a)fedoraproject.org". When someone then tries
to reply to a mailing list post the message is bounced as
"<mailinglist>(a)fedoraproject.org" is an invalid address. I don't
have
enough postfix-fu to fix the problem and no one with enough postfix-fu
has had the time, access, and/or interest in fixing the problem.
The issue is not
postfix. the issue is mailman setting the replyto wrong.
Even when i explicitly set the reply to correctly on the secondary arch list
it is still wrong.
Until this problem is fixed I've been hesitant to create any
(more)
lists.fedoraproject.org mailing lists.
lists.fedorahosted.org has a similar problem, except that
"<mailinglist>(a)fedorahosted.org" works due to some quirks of how
postfix interprets email addresses (AFAIK without a some hackery
postfix can't treat "(a)lists.<domain>" differently from
"@<domain>").
im pretty sure it only works because
lists.fedorahosted.org and
fedorahosted.org are on the same box.
