This is a bit of historical cleverness that was one of the first things that impressed me about the IETF. About the aliases, I think that rather than a transparent proxy the current namedroppers list should reply with a bounce message that says "Your message didn't go through, send it to namedroppers@ietf.org instead." Otherwise people will just keep using the old list, and not be given a reason to change. Also, having mail on the list with multiple different To: addresses, all valid, will generate needless confusion. I agree with the argument that having a dnsext@ietf.org alias is desirable, but I'm ambivalent about how it should be configured. IFF it can be set up in such a way that we don't get mail on the list with "To: dnsext@ietf.org" then fine, alias away. Otherwise my preference would be the same kind of bounce message as above. hth, Doug (too bad it was all downhill from there ...) -- Breadth of IT experience, and | Nothin' ever doesn't change, depth of knowledge in the DNS. | but nothin' changes much.
