That was it. I set MAILMAN_USER and MAILMAN_GROUP in exim and now everything works.. Thank you very much! Sorry about the misleading information I gave. The "name or service not known" messages still were weird. They didn't occur for the initialization mails only, but also for every mail I tried to send to the mailinglist.. (until yesterday), thats why I thought the mail to the mailinglist has reached mailman and mailman fails in distributing them to the mailinglist-subscribers.. But thanks again for the assistance! :) Best wishes, Meike -- Meike Aulbach <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ------------------------------------------------------ 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/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
