Hi,

This is just a summary of issues I've seen with mailing lists, and I use
"base-maillist-glue ... 1.4.0-68BQ10.centos4":

1- It does not matter whether a mail list is closed or moderated, if a list
member and domain user sends mail to the list, the "Full Name"
<address@domain> is not recognized as list member (identical with BQ GUI 
entries) and is being bounced to the admin address (reported recently from
other people in this list).

2- A "Help" message is sent to every non-member addresses making it a
"dedicated NDR generating machine" due to constant spamming.

3- I happen to use a mailing list as a "distribution" list - where the
address of the list is published as a "contact" address for that domain.
Whenever the message header is longer than 1024 bytes, Majordomo generates
the appropriate error. While it's a Majordomo thing, this should not happen
- how does other software accepts longer headers?

Off-topic, but not completely unrelated to: there were some reports on
several other lists and I can confirm this is happenning in one of the
servers I manage, Yahoo deferres connections if there are more than 5
recipients in one transaction - how can one configure mailing lists to
spool/deliver only a limited/partial number of recipients for a particular
domain?

Hope this helped,
Neritan
