# A typical Mailman list exposes nine aliases which point to seven different
# wrapped scripts.  E.g. for a list named `mylist', you'd have:
#
# mylist-bounces -> bounces (-admin is a deprecated alias)
# mylist-confirm -> confirm
# mylist-join    -> join    (-subscribe is an alias)
# mylist-leave   -> leave   (-unsubscribe is an alias)
# mylist-owner   -> owner
# mylist         -> post
# mylist-request -> request
#
# -request, -join, and -leave are a robot addresses; their sole purpose is to
# process emailed commands in a Majordomo-like fashion (although the latter
# two are hardcoded to subscription and unsubscription requests).  -bounces is
# the automated bounce processor, and all messages to list members have their
# return address set to -bounces.  If the bounce processor fails to extract a
# bouncing member address, it can optionally forward the message on to the
# list owners.
#
# -owner is for reaching a human operator with minimal list interaction
# (i.e. no bounce processing).  -confirm is another robot address which
# processes replies to VERP-like confirmation notices.
#
# So delivery flow of messages look like this:
#
# joerandom ---> mylist ---> list members
#    |                           |

# A person can send an email to the list address (for posting), the -owner
# address (to reach the human operator), or the -confirm, -join, -leave, and
# -request mailbots.  Message to the list address are then forwarded on to the
# list membership, with bounces directed to the -bounces address.
#
# [*] Messages sent to the -owner address are forwarded on to the list
# owner/moderators.  All -owner destined messages have their bounces directed
# to the site list -bounces address, regardless of whether a human sent the
# message or the message was crafted internally.  The intention here is that
# the site owners want to be notified when one of their list owners' addresses
# starts bouncing (yes, the will be automated in a future release).
#
# Any messages to site owners has their bounces directed to a special
# "loop-killer" address, which just dumps the message into
# data/owners-bounces.mbox.
#
# Finally, message to any of the mailbots causes the requested action to be
# performed.  Results notifications are sent to the author of the message,
# which all bounces pointing back to the -bounces address.
