[MM3-users] Re: Incoming command emails (i.e. listname-leave) routed to list itself

Hi Abilash,

Yes, I had the exact same problem very recently and was able to fix it. The updated documentation1 should fix your problem. The basic gist of the problem is that the exim configuration on the older documentation is missing a critical part.

Exim4 by default strips off any prefixes/suffixes when delivering mail to the mailman, which causes mailman to post all the messages to mailing list instead of processing them as commands.

rcpt_include_affixes = true

Adding the above line to the transport fixes that problem.

Nice! This fixed it perfectly. Thank you very much for the advice (and also for updating the docs).
