Danny,

Hard to say. Need to figure out where the error is occurring.

1. Do you get the messages sent from the Internet on the lists you subscribe to? (This would indicate that Mailman gets the messages, but can't correctly send email to the Internet, just to the LAN.)

Yes Last night I signed a user up here myself and then got him to post a message and everybody on the lan system got it ..
before I go any further I have three mail list here at the moment


List                                               email address
exericotas                             [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Rhsreunion                            [EMAIL PROTECTED]
amiga                                     [EMAIL PROTECTED]

what I have found in log file though is
in /var/log/mailman
bounce file
Jun 01 19:56:02 2003 (18534)Exericotas: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - first
and so on for member that should be signed up but are not
then down further I have
Jun 02 22:53:51 2003 (29909) exericotas: address [EMAIL PROTECTED] not a member.


then in the
bounce.1
has date time  (number) exericotas: otherusers - first

it has mostt of the users that should be signed up
there or in the bounce
then in a file
fromusenet.1

2. If you don't get the messages, do they show up as being received in the Postfix logs? (This would indicate that Mailman doesn't get the message, but the computer does. I think this very unlikely, though.)

3. Can you send mail from the Internet to a personal account on the same machine? (This would tell you whether anyone can send any email to your machine. Postfix logs would be interesting for this, too. If the only successful receipts are from the internal LAN, need to figure out why.)

Yes I think this is working but will get a mate to comfirm it again today



4. Can you send mail to the Internet from a personal account on the same machine as Mailman?

yes with no trouble at all




Typical suspects would include:


DNS (A. Can your machine resolve Internet addresses to be able to send email? B. Are you listed in DNS so people

yes no problems


sending email to your machine will get through?)

Mail routing. Are you connected to an ISP that requires all email to the Internet go through their mail server? Is your Mailman machine correctly set up in Postfix to do this?

Now i have fully rebuilt my system with the same copy of mailman on it and same redhat 8.0 but noew nobody gets any mail from mailman out side of my local lan.

I can subscribe to all the lists in fact everybody it the house on the lan can but nobody from the internet gets any mail back they use the web interface or just send email they never get anything back..
I can use the web interface or just send email and I get an answer straight away any ideas ..
what have I missed ..
