Hi,
I'm running postfix 2.0.16 with mailman 2.1.2., on Red Hat 9. When I
try to create a new list via the web interface, the aliases file does
not get updated.
My postfix main.cf has these entries:
Alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases,hash:/usr/local/mailman/data/aliases
Both /etc/aliases and /usr/local/mailman/data/aliases are owned by
mailman, group mailman.
I tried rearranging the order of the two entries, as such:
Alias_maps = hash:/usr/local/mailman/data/aliases,hash:/etc/aliases
But that broke the list creation entirely, and returned the error below.
Does anyone have suggestions on how to fix this alias problem?
BTW, the permissions on the files are rw-rw---- for
/usr/local/mailman/data/aliases and rw-r---- for /etc/aliases Which
would seem ok if the scripts execute as mailman, and the documentation
seems to indicate they do.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Randy Foo
