Greetings everyone, 

Please know that I have tried to resolve this without posting, but I
have been unable to produce a solution from searching the web. I'm
incredibly frustrated!!! Please, if someone as an idea as to what is
going on, your input would be GREATLY apprecaited!!

I have the following system: Fedora Core 6, Postfix 2.3.3, and Mailman
2.1.9
These were all installed with yum

I set up a virtual domain, and everything works with postfix alone. In
main.cf:
virtual_alias_domains = my.virt.domain
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual

### Now, changes for Mailman:
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases,
        hash:/etc/mailman/aliases  #if I comment this I have no problems

Then I added in mm_cfg.py:
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['my.virt.domain']
MTA = 'Postfix'

NOTE: One point of confusion, according to the GNU manual, there should
also be a virtual-mailman.db, but I don't see how, or know how to
create this??? genaliases only creates /etc/mailman/aliases....

PERMISSIONS:
in /etc/mailman:
-rwxrwxr-x   1 root    mailman  1843 Mar 22 19:16 aliases
-rwxrwxr-x   1 mailman mailman 12288 Mar 22 19:16 aliases.db

in /etc:
-rw-rw-r--   1 mailman mailman   2914 Mar 22 16:41 aliases
-rw-rw-r--   1 mailman mailman  12288 Mar 22 19:26 aliases.db

running check_perms produces no errors. 

I get the following errors in maillog:
Mar 22 19:48:26 localhost postfix/smtpd[8546]: fatal: open database
/etc/mailman/aliases.db: Permission denied
Mar 22 19:48:26 localhost postfix/master[8429]: warning: process
/usr/libexec/postfix/smtpd pid 8546 exit status 1
Mar 22 19:48:27 localhost postfix/master[8429]: warning:
/usr/libexec/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling

Sorry that I haven't found a solution with searching, I have discovered
this is not an uncommon problem!!! Thanks again, I greatly appreciate
any input and support.
