} Hi,

} I'm facing a problem. I need to test what happens when a list contains an

} tries to post the testmessage to the bogus email adress I added to the list.
}
} Then, the mailserver tries to send an error report to owner-
} <listname>@<listserver domain name>. This is the value of the "Return-path"
} entry in the mail header.
}
} This email adress does not exist, and the message cannot be delivered. It
} remains in the outbox folder of the mailserver.
}
} How can I let the mailserver send its error report to the list owner?

Create the owner-listname address, and forward it to the owner.
