Hi all - I'm setting up Mailman for the first time and have run into one problem that even the great god "Google" can't seem to help me with. I thought perhaps y'all could. 8)
Here's what I have: A debian (woody) box running exim 3.35. I hand compiled python2.3 for it, and downloaded the latest stable Mailman (2.1.5 I believe). I followed the procedure for setting everything up, and so far as I can tell, everything works. However, there's one problem. Whenever the exim -q runs from cron, I get something like the following: 2005-01-24 08:53:01 1Cs7ew-0005Tf-00 Neither the system_aliases director nor the address_pipe transport set a uid for local delivery of |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman I've got the following bits in my exim.conf (as directed by the setup) (Main config section) MAILMAN_HOME=/usr/local/mailman MAILMAN_WRAP=MAILMAN_HOME/mail/mailman MAILMAN_USER=mailman MAILMAN_GROUP=mailman (Transport section) mailman_transport: driver = pipe command = MAILMAN_WRAP \ '${if def:local_part_suffix \ {${sg{$local_part_suffix}{-(\\w+)(\\+.*)?}{\$1}}} \ {post}}' \ $local_part current_directory = MAILMAN_HOME home_directory = MAILMAN_HOME user = MAILMAN_USER group = MAILMAN_GROUP (Directors section) mailman_director: driver = smartuser require_files = MAILMAN_HOME/lists/$local_part/config.pck suffix_optional suffix = -bounces : -bounces+* : \ -confirm+* : -join : -leave : \ -owner : -request : -admin transport = mailman_transport And finally, in my /etc/aliases (and yes, I did run "newaliases") I have: ## mailman mailing list mailman: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman" mailman-admin: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman admin mailman" mailman-bounces: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman bounces mailman" mailman-confirm: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman confirm mailman" mailman-join: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman join mailman" mailman-leave: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman leave mailman" mailman-owner: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman owner mailman" mailman-request: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman request mailman" mailman-subscribe: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe mailman" mailman-unsubscribe: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe mailman" Anybody have thoughts/hints/suggestions?
