Any ideas? I'm not really a Postfix guy at all. Others on the mailman-users list know a lot more than I about Postfix, but the mailman translation of the above is straightforward. Mailman creates data/virtual-mailman* which corresponds to the mailman portion of/etc/postfix/virtual above and which maps in your case [EMAIL PROTECTED] listname [EMAIL PROTECTED] listname-bounces etc. i.e. it maps the [EMAIL PROTECTED] addresses to the corresponding local addresses. Then the mailman created data/aliases* pipes those local addresses to the mailman wrapper. This corresponds to the mailman portion of /etc/aliases. Possibly there is a permissions issue. What does ls -l mailman/data show? Also, what's in mailman/data/aliases and mailman/data/virtual-mailman? -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
