I'm using
* Mailman 2.1.9.-4.e15.i386
* Redhat 5.3.03.i386
* sendmail 8.13.8.2.el5,i386
I'm experienced with Mailman with BSD for sometime (a couple of years)
but the first time with Redhat on a completely different server.
For this example/problem,
my host is wall
Domain is ss.uic.edu
so I have wall.ss.uic.edu
Sendmail is fine and emails come and go with mail sent and received
from user at wall.ss.uic.edu
I've used RPM to install Mailman.
I've created a list called techies with subscribers on everything
from in-house to gmail.
When as a subscriber I send email to techies at wall.ss.uic.edu the mail
is arrives at users inboxes as being from techies at ss.uic.edu with
"wall" left off.
On the Mailman admin page for "Techies" , under "General Options", I
have "Hostname this list prefers for email" set to wall.ss.uic.edu and
it still leaves off wall.
I've been through mm_config.py and sendmail.cf for days and simply
can't find what's wrong.
I can live with it if I just want to have broadcast lists but I also
need to have lists where people can reply.
Any suggestions or ideas. Thank you very much.
Best wishes and many thanks for your consideration.
