Description
In the mailbox for root, I see some odd mails:
Message 20: From MAILER-DAEMON Tue Mar 7 10:29:46 2023 X-Original-To: root@mailman3.infra.opensuse.org Delivered-To: root@mailman3.infra.opensuse.org Date: Tue, 7 Mar 2023 10:29:46 +0000 (UTC) From: Mail Delivery System <MAILER-DAEMON@mailman3.infra.opensuse.org> Subject: Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender To: root@mailman3.infra.opensuse.org Auto-Submitted: auto-replied MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: multipart/report; report-type=delivery-status; boundary="B0E2F20A5.1678184986/mailman3.infra.opensuse.org" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Part 1: Content-Description: Notification Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit This is the mail system at host mailman3.infra.opensuse.org. I'm sorry to have to inform you that your message could not be delivered to one or more recipients. It's attached below. For further assistance, please send mail to postmaster. If you do so, please include this problem report. You can delete your own text from the attached returned message. The mail system </dev/null@mailman3.infra.opensuse.org> (expanded from </dev/null>): unknown user: "/dev/null" Part 2: Content-Description: Delivery report Content-Type: message/delivery-status Part 3: Content-Description: Undelivered Message Content-Type: message/rfc822 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit From root@mailman3.infra.opensuse.org Tue Mar 7 10:29:46 2023 Date: Tue, 07 Mar 2023 10:29:46 +0000 To: Subject: admin-auto@opensuse.org User-Agent: Heirloom mailx 12.5 7/5/10 MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable From: root <root@mailman3.infra.opensuse.org>
The message that could not be delivered has an empty To: line, and Subject says admin-auto@opensuse.org
. It seems to have been sent to /dev/null
which obviously did not work.

They are somewhat frequent/regular:

So, a few on 7 and 8 March, then it pretty much stops, then a single one on 12 March. I guess mailman detects some unusual situation.
I've tried to find some code or a script where a mail is sent to admin-auto, and output probably piped to /dev/null
, but no luck.
