Subject: ADMINISTRIVIA - mungedomain madness

As a number of you have noticed, the restrict_post feature has been
preventing certain folk from posting to harp-l (in those cases where your
From: address does not match your subscribed address).

Majordomo is *supposed* to have a feature to take care of this (called
munge_domain, which will match na~achine.dom.ain to na~om.ain, i.e.
will match if one RHS of the address is a substring of the other RHS).

However, this feature of majordomo seems to be badly broken. I've just
spend a horrible two hours hacking on this code, and I *think* it is now
working.

I have a folder of 66 messages from the past 10 days or so which got
"BOUNCE harp-l: Non-member submission" stamped and sent to me.
Unfortunately they got filtered off by procmail into a folder I never read
(harp-l-bounce), so I didn't notice them until now.

I'm just writing a quick script to go through this folder and bounce these
messages back to the originators, so y'all can decide whether you want to
re-post them.

Sorry 'bout all this. I thought everything was going smoothly 'cos I
didn't see any non-member BOUNCE's, but my procmail filters got the better
of me. If it's any consolation, I was one of the members who couldn't
post (From: = hu~arply.com, subscribed = hu~oo.garply.com), and
didn't know it!

*sigh*
