<DIV>Indeed, VERP changes everything. </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>(In my system) if VERP is enabled the confirm delivery message goes to the dynamically created VERP address, that is, it goes to nobody. </DIV> <DIV>But the subscription status of the sender is set to "disabled by VERP". Too much punishment, isn't?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>BTW, after the probes I realize that the affected address is not necessarily that of the list owner, but that in the "Errors go to" list setting </DIV> <DIV>(conventional error handling mode). </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Best regards.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

<FONT size=2> <P align=left>Hello,</P> <P align=left mce_keep="true"> </P> <P align=left>I have a mailing list running on Mercury/32 4.62. A list owner is in place. </P> <P align=left>When a list user sends a message to the list with "confirm delivery" enabled (Disposition-Notification-To header?), the response of the Mail Delivery System (</FONT><U><FONT color=#0000ff size=2><FONT color=#0000ff size=2>postmaster@domain</U></FONT></FONT><FONT size=2>) is sent to the list owner. It's a normal behaviour? Perhaps a misconfiguration?.</P> <P align=left mce_keep="true"> </P> <P align=left>Thanks in advance. </P> <P align=left mce_keep="true"> </P> <P align=left>Regards.</P> <P align=left mce_keep="true"> </P></FONT>

I don't recall how this was discussed in relation to the anonymous flags. Could you test and summarize how and if the Disposition-Notification-To header changes in relation to the not anonymous, partly anonymous and fully anonymous flag setting?

<p>I'm not too sure where mine is different that yours.  I have a test list on a Mercury/32 server where anyone can post that has a moderator test@tstephenson.com set.  The moderator is not a list member.  There is only one list member techsupp@tstephenson.com.  The list is set to not strip headers.  When i send to this list from support@tstephenson.com with a header Disposition-Notification-To: support@tstephenson.com set the incoming message has this header but the outgoing does not.  I am using VERP here.  In fact, the disposition header is completely ignored as far as i can see.  That's a good deal as far as I can see since i really do not think that a sender should be able to collect all of the email addresses on a list by simply sending a message to the list.  Here's the list settings: </p>test    File:             C:\MERCURY\MERCURY\test.mlf    Title:            Test List    Welcome:          Standard    Farewell:         Standard    Moderator:        test@tstephenson.com    Enumerate:        N    Reply_to_list:    Y    Public:           Y    List_Headers:     3    Confirm_subs:     Y    CS_Template:      c:\mercury\confirms.mer    Mod_redirect:     N    Password_Posting: N    P_Password_File:  N    Prefixing:        0    No_stripping:     Y    S_Password_File:  N    VERP_mode:        1    VERP_maxerrs:     3    VERP_flags:       0    VERP_filename:        List_ID:          100    Def_Password:         Auto_Password:    N<p> </p>
