Mailman is running , and i have setup a test list. i subscribed 3 users. These user accounts are located on the primary box. Now i have not setup an MX record yet. But i will once I figure out which way to go.
delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code 550: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: User unknown in local recipient table.
**doh**
i don't want a local delivery,..i want to send mail to the primary. is there anyway i can do this?
This is based on your mail server and MX records.
You can create aliases on the main server and then point specific aliases to a subdomain, or by using transport maps (Postfix).
One domain name means one main MX machine which can then feed mail to secondary machines given correct aliasing.
Using a separate subdomain for Mailman would probably be easier
([EMAIL PROTECTED])... then you set up the mail server on the
Mailman machine to receive mail for lists.mydomain.com
greetings, thanks for the reply.
that makes total sense to me.
i am converting about a 100 alias files into maillists. and running them on a different machine.
correct me if Im wrong. i setup my dns records IN MX 10 smpt1.mydomain.com. IN MX 10 smpt2.mydomain.com.
on smtp1 i create an alias
user-list1 --> [EMAIL PROTECTED] user-list2 --> [EMAIL PROTECTED] user-list3 --> [EMAIL PROTECTED] etc,...
does that sound correct?
Do I have to edit any files as far as Mailman is concerned?
Should I relay my smtp traffic through smtp1 or just let the list server take car of itself?
thanks
