Hi All,

I am wondering if anyone is having similar experince with Listserv where 
messages send to a very large list get resend a second time to some of the 
recipientsc by sendmail due to unknown email addresses retuned by the server 
local alias table.
We have configured our Listserv server in Unix environment and all our staff 
aliases are resolvable by the Listserv server.
According to Lsoft technical support, we have to modify some setting in 
sendmail timeout to fix the issue, but they have not benn specific about the 
changes.

During email distribution from Listserv, we noted that some of the 
recipients addreses that are bad are reported back instantly to Listserv by 
the server alias deamon as shown below.

In Sendmail log the same message was generated twice to the same list with 
differennt message ID and each list of recipients are identical starting 
with the bad addreses.

Please respond with any helpful information.



Thanks,
Nick
