Most problems seem to be related to people forgetting to setup aliases, but in this case i'm using mm-handler which as far as i understand overrides the use of aliases and only needs some address in the virtusertable. (if address doesn't exist in virtusertable then goto mm-handler and get specific mailinglist address) I got everything up and running, made the test list, received the mails from the test list, was able to subscribe people to it using the webinterface, the newly subscribed people also received the mails. Problem is when trying to send a mail to the new mailinglist. 550 5.1.1 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>... User unknown I followed all the instructions according to the README.mm-handler file. My handler file looks like this: /etc/mail/mm-handler -rwxr-xr-- 1 mailman mailman 5951 Mar 20 13:39 mm-handler The link to mailman: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mail]# cd /etc/smrsh/ [EMAIL PROTECTED] smrsh]# ll total 5 drwxr-xr-x 2 root root 1024 Mar 20 10:22 . drwxr-xr-x 50 root root 4096 Mar 20 15:21 .. lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 31 Mar 20 10:22 mailman -> /usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman The appropriate parts of the sendmail.cf (at least i think these are only the appropriate ones concerning this problem) # Mailer table (overriding domains) Kmailertable hash -o /etc/mail/mailertable.db # Virtual user table (maps incoming users) Kvirtuser hash -o /etc/mail/virtusertable.db Mmailman, P=/etc/mail/mm-handler, F=rDFMhlqSu, U=mailman:mailman, S=EnvFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL, A=mm-handler $h $u Mailertable looks like this: senldogo0013.springer-sbm.com mailman:senldogo0013.springer-sbm.com And the Virtusertable like this: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] When sending a test message to either of the above mentioned addresses works which indicates that the virtusertable file is active and working. When trying to send a test message to a invalid or valid mailinglist address i get the user unknown message back from sendmail and not the error message i'm expecting from the mm-handler which indicates to me that sendmail isn't properly seeing the mm-handler. My main concern is the sendmail.cf, i first edited the os delivered sendmail.mc file did some cut pasting from the mailman.mc file then generated the sendmail.cf file using the proper m4 method. Maybe someone can give me a basic sendmail.cf which can be easily used for the basic mail & mailman functionality cause the mailman.mc file which comes with the package can't be used cause that one gives lots of errors.
