[Mailman-Users] testing lists using IP addresses

Most MTA's are setup to use the Domain Name.  I think the ip address would
screw them up considerably.  You could configure your local MTA to handle
the ip address, and set that as one of the domains for which you accept
mail, then it would probably work locally, but not remotely.

You would also have to setup mailman to accept mail in that format ie:
seanp at 127.0.0.1

Good Luck
