I realize I'm digging up an old e-mail, but browsing the list
archives for a solution to problem I'm having, I came across
this post by Ed Kasky.

I had changed my mailing list configurations a while ago
as there seems to be some smegheads out there who found out
the mailinglist owner and thusly kept on sending to a
restricted mailing list.

Anyway, I changed it using Ed Kasky's method (adding the
nobody at the end) and noticed ever since then, the
root account has been inundated by mailinglist posts.
I checked the alias files and noticed that nobody
was aliased to root.

Is this exactly suppose to happen?  If not, am I
doing something wrong?  I am using Sendmail w/
the latest version of Majordomo.

Thanks
