This message comes from postfix and is telling you it doesn't know how to deliver to [EMAIL PROTECTED] It is quite likely that your aliases are not configured in postfix in the right way. If things are properly configured, I don't think it will be using the Kolab Server transport protocol. >> >> >It looks as if mailman doesn't pick up the correct 2domain.com >> >> It looks to me like a MTA (postfix) configuration issue. >> >> >I have in mm_cfg.py domain.com as e-mail address for the server. >> > >> >I am using Kolab 2 and postfix as e-mail setup. >> >> Or maybe it's a Kolab 2/postfix issue.

They look something like list: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post list" list-admin: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin list" list-bounces: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces list" list-confirm: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm list" list-join: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join list" list-leave: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave list" list-owner: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner list" list-request: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request list" list-subscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe list" list-unsubscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe list" Mailman then calls the POSTFIX_ALIAS_CMD which in your case is the default '/usr/sbin/postalias' to update the aliases.db file. It is these aliases together with the above alias_maps in the postfix config that tell postfix how to deliver to 'list'. In your case, something is wrong with the aliases or aliases.db files content or permissions or they aren't where postfix thinks they are or something in the postfix configuration, perhaps having to do with Kolab 2, is interfering with postfix's use of the aliases, or ?? See http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node12.html and subordinates. If you still can't figure it out, try a postfix support list. This is not a Mailman problem.
