I'm trying to use the [auth_ilst] positional parameter to restrict posting to a list. From the alias file: > ! Mailing_List.Aliases > ! > comcom-l: comcom-list > comcom-list: comcom-forward > comcom-x: <pmdf_mailserv_mail_dir:comcom-list.dis,\ > [auth_list] pmdf_mailserv_mail_dir:comcom-list.dis,\ > comcom-l-owner,*,*,comcom-l-owner > comcom-owner: postmaster,comcom-sec > comcom-sec: gerland VMSmail forwarding addresses: comcom-x -> in%comcom-x comcom-forward -> in%comcom-x Mail that is sent from an address not in the named file is not delivered to the list, as expected. However, it's not bounced to the originator either. It just sits in the queue and gets retried laster. The log file shows: > $ mail/protocol=pmdf_mailshr > %PMDF-E-HOST, Illegal host/domain in address "COMCOM-X" > -PMDF-I-TEXT, you are not allowed to use this list: COMCOM-X@DECUS.Org I don't remember what version of PMDF was first supposed to support this feature. Should this work under 4.1-11? If the PMDF version is not the problem, what do you suggest I look at to figure out the problem?
