[Mailman-Users] bounced messages and VERP ??

[Yogesh Subhash Talekar]

Sorry

I think I need a answer of a single question:
How do I make sure that Mailman is not VERPing mails? And if I find that
it is VERPing mails then how do I turn it OFF ??

Do I need to re-configure my list? What is the parameter in sitelist.cfg
file which I need to change for this??

TIA
