It was on the list yesterday and Brad's reply is at http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2005-April/043964.html Brad's reply is that this is an Exim question and Exim lists, etc are much more likely to provide a useful response than this list. In order to prove Brad correct, I'll point out what I (not an Exim guy) see, but I can't tell you what to do about it because I don't know. >----------------------------------- > >I'm running Gentoo with Exim 4.43-r2 and Mailman 2.1.5-r4. > >When I send a message to my list "rbc", it never gets sent. > >The logs have some entries that look like this: > >Apr 6 00:42:21 [exim] 2005-04-06 00:42:21 no host name found for IP >address 10.10.10.69 >Apr 6 00:42:21 [exim] 2005-04-06 00:42:21 1DJ5B7-0006dd-Cc <= >[EMAIL PROTECTED] H=(locutus) [10.10.10.69] P=esmtpsa >X=TLSv1:RC4-MD5:128 A=login:dae51d S=569 >Apr 6 00:42:21 [exim] 2005-04-06 00:42:21 1DJ5B7-0006dd-Cc User 0 set >for address_pipe transport is on the never_users list > - Last output repeated twice - >Apr 6 00:42:21 [exim] 2005-04-06 00:42:21 1DJ5B7-0006dd-Cc == >|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post rbc <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >R=system_aliases T=address_pipe defer (-29): User 0 set for address_pipe >transport is on the never_users list This seems to me to be saying that Exim is trying to pipe the message (presumably to the mailman wrapper), but it is running as User 0 (root) which is on some Exim configured list (never-users) of users not allowed to do this. > >I've googled for address_pipe and never_users and it seems to be Exim >related, but I really don't know what to change to fix this.

Mail to the list post address ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) should be piped to the mailman wrapper exactly as shown in the response. The router = and transport = stuff is an Exim incantation that tells Exim to do its Mailman magic which results in the pipe as shown. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
