The above aliases and virtual-mailman entries look like what you need to have two lists named respectively 'board' and 'hrca_board' as far as Mailman is concerned internally and to access these lists via emails as [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc. and [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc. respectively. Did you run postalias and postmap to update the .db files after making the above entries. > From the instructions in the thread I found, I thought I should just > modify the [EMAIL PROTECTED] to be [EMAIL PROTECTED] in the virtual > mailman file (and all the other ones like -admin, etc.), but that > doesn't seem to do it... It should as long as you run postmap after making the mods. You will also want to set [EMAIL PROTECTED] in acceptable_aliases for the hrca_board list, and possibly other changes? In what respect does it not do it? What happens when you mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Also, if I run genaliases, then everything changes back to the > original state anyway. Right. This will be a problem, but once you get it set up, you shouldn't need to run genaliases, as list creation and deletion should keep things in sync. > Am I missing something??? It looks OK to me as long as you are running postmap after manually updating virtual-mailman. > As additional info, I have postfix set up with: > > virtual_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/db/virtual, > hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman > alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, > hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/aliases Looks good. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
