This sounds like Postfix thinks that domain2 is not local and it is refusing to relay from domain2 to the outside. >> I'm not really familiar with Postfix, but see >> ><http://www.list.org/mailman-install/postfix-virtual.html> >and the >> other material in that section of the manual. > >The trouble is, this is the documentation I don't >understand! Can anyone help? Specifically, having >set up domain2 as a virtual domain in postfix, what do >I need to do to allow mailman to use this?

This has to do primarily with setting up Postfix so that incoming mail to the various list and list-* addresses at domain1 and domain2 are all properly delivered to Mailman. I don't think anything special needs to be done to accommodate outgoing mail from Mailman as long as both domain1 and domain2 can send mail at all. >> MTA = Postfix <snip> >> >Got it... FYI, the "MTA=Postfix" threw up an error, >but all went well without this line. My fault. It needs to be MTA = 'Postfix' So that bin/genaliases and list creation and deletion can automatically update the Mailman aliases and virtual maps files for Postfix. Mailman creates/updates the data/aliases and data/virtual-mailman files and the postalias and postmap commands update the corresponding .db files. The aliases and virtual-mailman files are referenced in the Postfix configuration in alias_maps and virtual_alias_maps as shown in the manual. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
