Bah, ok, I'm still having trouble with this. Some of the people on the list get the emails from the list, but a bunch of others get this error in smtp-failure like delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code -1: Server not connected delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code -1: Server not connected delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code -1: Server not connected delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code -1: Server not connected ... and so on
I've tried that setting SMTPHOST '127.0.0.1' and SMTPHOST '10.0.0.1' and also it's MX ip address, and all result in the following error: Low level smtp error: Server not connected, msgid: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Commenting out SMTPHOST gets rid of the above "Low level smtp" error, but the "Server not connected" errors continue. My MTA is PostFix -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Mike Hanby Sent: Tuesday, August 30, 2005 10:52 To: mailman-users@python.org Subject: [Mailman-Users] "Server not connected" in smtp-failure log Howdy all, I have my mailman list set up as an E-Newsletter distribution list, i.e. only email that I approve goes out to the list. I am seeing the following errors being repeated over and over in my /usr/local/mailman/logs/smtp-failure log delivery to [EMAIL PROTECTED] failed with code -1: Server not connected I found a possible solution to this in mailman-users list: Write this line in your mm_cfg.py MTA = 'Postfix' SMTPHOST = 'aa.bb.cc.dd' I already had the MTA line correct, but didn't have the SMTPHOST line. I've added that line. My questions: 1) do I need to do anything to get mailman to re-read mm_cfg.py? 2) Will mailman re-attempt to deliver the email to this user or will he have to wait for my next newsletter email? (remember this is an E-Newsletter type list) Thanks, Mike ------------------------------------------------------ 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/flakrat%40yahoo.com Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp ------------------------------------------------------ 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
