Wegen ein paar technischer Probleme noch einmal: Hello, I have got a problem with pegasus mail 3.1 (r1a) on a novell. I have a special account (address) which I want to use only as a distribution- list, i.e. all mail sent there shall be distributed to several other addresses internet-wide. I do have created a list under F6 with all the addresses and I do have external-features-rights, namely autoforwarding. I also can insert the list into the two autoforwarding-fields by pressing F6 and selecting the list. It is inserted there.=20 BUT: When I send a message to that address, I always get an error-message back, telling me the following: 550 <@ ....list.pml> ...Host unknown: A system call received a parameter that is not valid.=20 This message apparently comes not from pmail, but from the mail-service. But it looks like pmail doesn't substitute the lists' name with its contents, but triesto send the mail to an address of the lists' path and name.=20 What do I do wrong?=20 When I call online-help (F1) in the autoforward-address-field, I get told that I *may* give a list, but that it has to be in a publicly addressable directory. So it is. I even referred from using drive-letters (H:\mail...) and set up the path by using the volume name (UNIHH_FB06_CIP/SYS:\mail ...), because the autoforward is to be executed when the account is not logged on, otherwise I could have used the filtering rules.=20 Does anyone have an idea?=20 Please answer (also) by e-mail to koerber@erzi.erzwiss.uni-hamburg.de Thank you very much.
