| DESCRIPTION OF ENHANCEMENTS |
************************************************************
If a site lists itself as the PARENT in file 4.3, MAILMAN SITE PARAMETERS,
that can cause problems. This patch puts a screen on that field in the DD
to prevent this from happening.
The pre-init for this patch will check to ensure that your site does not
have itself as its PARENT. If it does, the PARENT field will be deleted
and you will have to enter the correct PARENT.
If field 3, PARENT, in file 4.3 is filled in, you should ensure that it
does not point to its own domain. It should be the domain considered
It is important that you read the information in this patch.
the parent of your facility. The parent domain is the domain to which
mail is sent, when your facility doesn't quite know what to do with it.
For example,
1. The parent domain of the MailMan development account,
MAILMAN.ISC-SF.DOMAIN.EXT, is ISC-SF.DOMAIN.EXT.
(The parent domain should NOT be MAILMAN.ISC-SF.DOMAIN.EXT)
2. The parent domain of ISC-SF.DOMAIN.EXT is DOMAIN.EXT. It could also
be GK.DOMAIN.EXT or whatever domain your site uses to send mail to the
internet. (The parent domain should NOT be ISC-SF.DOMAIN.EXT)
You may have to manually fix something.
The account that you install this patch in probably matches one of the
examples. If not, the parent domain should be the domain through which
you route messages to remote sites over the internet.
NOTE: This patch should be installed during off hours, when user activity
is at a minimum. It requires MailMan patch XM*7.1*50.
