Hi there,
Many people use aliases for mailing list correspondence, so that the
bots which scrape list archives for email addresses and then send spam
to those addresses get the aliases and not the real addresses. It's a
simple matter to permit mail to the aliases from only the list servers,
and that's what I've done for a couple of decades for many lists.
It seems that if someone replies to a message which I've sent to the
ClamAV list using 'reply to originator' with 'cc to list' (or whatever
the mail client calls those things), then when the ClamAV list server
processes the message, it doesn't send the message to me. It's kinda
unhelpful, as I'll then see no reply unless I happen to see the REJECT
message in the logs, or maybe look at the list archives.
Is this really what's happening, and if so, is it by design?
