Folks, Whazzup with winehq.org? I get duplicated emails, and more importantly the latency on the wine-*@winehq.org mailing lists is measured in (many) hours instead of seconds. What gives? -- Dimi.
After the server crash of last week, the newly built server didn't have *quite* the same sendmail configuration. In fact, it was busticated; the key problem we noticed was that it was sending out bogus headers (localhost.localdomain), which roughly 25% of mailer servers (correctly) discard. We fixed that yesterday. So first of all, some of you may want to browse the archives (well, primarily if you haven't seen any emails for 4-5 days, and then suddenly started seeing them again). Jer spent all day yesterday struggling with the sendmail configuration to get it to alias the from headers properly (so they always say winehq.org, and have no evidence of wine.codeweavers.com). After much cursing and struggling, he finally gave up. If there are any sendmail experts that know exactly how to use the aliasing features, feel free to offer Jer some help. (Although he's got a *lot* of other stuff to do, so he may defer this). Beyond that, everything should be back to normal. Let Jer or I know if things still seem slow or strange.

*shudder* thanks Jer! -- "Security is mostly superstition. It does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life is either a daring adventure, or nothing. To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable." --Helen Keller gmt

Never ever give up! :-) I believe I have our new version of sendmail configured correctly (8.12). The list should always identify itself properly in the envelope as winehq.com. In the headers however the actual hostname of wine.codeweavers.com is used. If anyone still notices any oddities with either the headers or the envelope please let me know. -- Jeremy Newman <jnewman(a)codeweavers.com> CodeWeavers, Inc.

I usually fix sendmail problems by installing qmail. I'll be happy to help with this case as well. If qmail is not an option, for some reason, may I suggest any other MTA that does not also function as an IRES? Shachar P.S. IRES - Instant Root Elevation System.
