You should have an entry in your Postfix main.cf like (pointing to your
correct aliases paths):
alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases, hash:/usr/local/mailman/data/aliases
This may be a part of the problem. I looked at the file and neither of these
exist. But the lines allso have # so I thought those were comments...
This will report any incorrect file/group permissions, or, to correct any
file/group permissions issues, run as root:
check_perms -f
This seemed to work I believe. a number of lines said fixed.
How do I rebuild the aliases.db file?
bin/genaliases
Here is what I get here:
rxweb:~ tcwaters$ sudo /usr/share/mailman/bin/genaliases
postalias: fatal: open /private/var/mailman/data/aliases.db: Permission denied
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/share/mailman/bin/genaliases", line 116, in ?

Hmmm, where exactly do your Mailmail aliases files live? There appears to be
some be some conflict in the paths shown above. Try executing the genaliases
command from the mailman top-level directory as:
sudo bin/genaliases
and see if that works for you. Also, please keep posts and replies on the
list, helps to build the archive for future reference.
Thanks,
Bill
