Hello all, Currently, there is an implicit conflation between $user@debian.org and $user@$machine.debian.org. This means that mail to, for instance, sgran@gluck.debian.org is handled the same way as mail to sgran@debian.org, whether or not I have an account on the gluck. I'd quite like to change this. Unfortunately, this will break some people's mail setups if they rely on this implicit behavior. The most common usage I have seen of this type is a user whoes does not have a mail forward set and relies on, for instance, procmail on master to do the work for them. If you are currently relying on something like this, please set your mail forward to $user@master.debian.org. This will allow procmail/.forward/etc handling to continue. There appear to currently be 27 active users who do not have mail forwards set in ldap, so this mail is primarily to them. A list can be provided, but the same list can be obtained with: ldapsearch -x '(&(uid=*)(!(emailForward=*))(!(accountStatus=*))(!(objectClass=debianRoleAccount)))' uid from any debian.org machine. I'd like to make this change in the next few weeks, unless there is an obvious reason to keep spamtraps like this open that I am missing. Let's set a loose date of April 18th for making this change - certainly not before, but possibly after. Cheers, -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- | ,''`.
