I have recently set up solaris 5.8 machine with mailman 2.0 to do some testing for an older mailman system I use here. Today I installed sendmail -8.12.1 as my MTA. I can send mail fine to listname-owner and other aliases, but I am having problems sending mail to the list alias. I have a test list set up with myself as the only member. After I send mail to the list, I get errors in ~mailman/logs/bounce in this format:
Oct 11 09:52:01 2001 (4409) LISTNAME: testuser@testdomain - 3 more allowed over 431450 secs, where LISTNAME, testuser, and testdomain are all real values. For the first three time this happens, the number (3 in the example) decreases until it hits zero. The next message to the bounce file is: Date.... (4413) LISTNAME: disabled username@domain - exceeded limits I also get the following in ~mailman/logs/smtp: Date.... (4409) All recipients refused:553, '5.1.3 <test-admin@>... Hostname required', 'test-admin@') Date.... (4409) smtp for 1 recips, completed in 0.084 seconds And I have to go in through the web admin interface and enable mail back to myself, since it gets checked to nomail. I get no messages by way of syslog for mail, but I still have a feeling the problem is with my MTA and not mailman. 553 is invalid mailbox name. Again, I can hit the mailboxes directly, but not through mailman. Syslog shows messages destined for the list being fed to the pipe specified in /etc/mail/aliases. What causes the above symptom, and any ideas how can I fix it? ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users
