So... I run a small mailinglist using mailman3 that has been workiing great for a couple of months. Last week, all my users from gmail got kicked off because gmail decided that the list messages were "unsolicited email". I didn't find out about it until the users hit their mailman3 bounce limit. I *thought* would be seeing all the bounce messages, but apparently not. I didn't see any config settings for "see all the bounce messages" so i thought to myself, "Self, well maybe that's because my mailinglist username doesn't have a mailbox in /home/listname".
So, I decided to try that. I created /home/listname/Maildir/* and logged in as fplist to see if it would put mail there. In order to log in as listname, I gave the user listname a password.
Then the world ended.
The mailinglist works OK for *new* posts, but it is now impossible to *reply* to posts.
So, if I post as a member from user@somewhere.org to listname@example.com, it works. If I hit reply, with the From: line rewritten as listname@example.com, it fails.
The error I get is:
The reported error was “Error performing TLS handshake: An unexpected TLS packet was received.”.
My suspicion is that there are two passwords floating around for "listname" -- one in mailman3 and the one in /etc/shadow, but I don't know.
In retrospect, this was not my finest moment. But is there an easy way to back out of this?
Thanks!
