I don't use Surgemail, but I get similar errors when using Postfix (our MTA) if I don't set up the aliases in the postfix mail alias file (under linux, /etc/postfix/aliases) for the list that I created . A typical alias for a test list might look like: testlist: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post testlist" testlist-admin: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman admin testlist" testlist-bounces: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman bounces testlist" testlist-confirm: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman confirm testlist" testlist-join: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman join testlist" testlist-leave: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman leave testlist" testlist-owner: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman owner testlist" testlist-request: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman request testlist" testlist-subscribe: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe testlist" testlist-unsubscribe: "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe testlist" After adding these entries, I have to execute the postfix newaliases command to register them. If I forget either step, I get very similar errors to the one below.
