Interesting.

I just installed Mailman today, by-the-book and double checked as much as I could, and I'm having the same problems.

/var/log/maillog shows that the message is sent (no errors) to "wrapper" which is symlinked (on FreeBSD) in /usr/libexec/sm.bin and has the correct permissions.

The logs/smtp file doesn't say anything useful:

Jul 03 18:28:32 2001 (75115) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.279 seconds

Nothing in the other logs that would point to a problem.  "check_perms -f" says all is well.

The aliases in /etc/mail/aliases are set up correctly (that would be obvious).

The administrative interface (web) says there is nothing in queue, and no archive (even though I told it to archive the new private list), but I see in the qfiles directory:

4da4aafdb0a6912bd8774da049fc15a4d25ffe7d.db

My crontab was installed properly and I HUP'd the cron process (the paths are correct in the crontab entries).

The httpd.conf (Apache 1.3.20) seems to be correctly configured -- I can get to the interface using:

        http://ourhost.ourdomain.com/mailman/admin

I installed an alias per the instructions I read:

        Alias /pipermail/ "/local5/mailman/archives/"

Though I admit to not seeing where that is useful -- and it doesn't let me at the archive anyway.

Do you have to place an entry in the httpd.conf file for every list you create??   I want to have my private lists available in archive form for the admin.

So... :-)  Just a little concerned about why this isn't working and where I can look next for something awry.


Thanks in advance.

The keyword is logfiles.
Check the mailman /log directory and check the MTA (mailer) logfiles which
are placed depending on your mailer and OS.

Most probably /var/log/maillog or something similar...
