Having just (still) gone (going) through the virtual hosts/lists dance... I was actually planning on writing up my experiences for this list. Could become a FAQ.... In the short form: AFAICT, none of the published patches work out of the box on 2.1.5 (I've been patching the patches). It -does- matter how you postfix setup is configured. There aren't any decent explanations of which foot bone connects to which ankle bone, and how list names change in the process. There are few, if any, patches for the ./bin utilities to do the right thing with virtual lists. I've already patched list_lists for that, and may get to the others RSN. Oh, ya. check_perms doesn't seem to report that the alias file isn't owned by mailman. z! ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/
