Bug Description
The LMTP server currently does a sanity check on the To field of the incoming message, to ensure that it is addressed to a valid mailing list. This check ignores acceptable aliases, but it should honor them.
To post a comment you must log in.
Does "the To field of the incoming message" mean the RCPT TO argument of the LMTP session? Or the "To:" header of the message. I think it should mean the former, since the latter needn't be related at all, if the list permits BCC.
