I installed mailman. I created a mailing list to test if mailman

fine or not. Well, mailman seems alsmot to work but there is just a
problem.
Let's assume, I have a mailing list : "test". And the mail used
for this
mailing list is "[EMAIL PROTECTED]", the members have to send
their mails at [EMAIL PROTECTED], sure, this email exists,
but if
a member sends a mail to this address, the mail sticks with the
folder
of the email (/var/spool/vmail/lists.mydomain.tld/test/new/), and
so the
email is not distributed to the list.
I didn't find a solution, I think this is a problem with the
configuration... Any ideas?
Obviously, you did not configure your MTA (Sendmail, Exim, Postfix)
to
forward those mails to Mailman. Instead, the mail is delivered to the
correspondent maildir in /var/spool. Mailman integration for various
MTAs is described here:
http://www.list.org/mailman-install/mail-server.html
Oops, yeah, I've forgotten to configure my MTA. So, it's done, alsmot:

The correct command to create a hash file out of a file that is (a)
listed in Postfix's "alias_database" setting is to execute the command
"newaliases". "postmap" OTOH doesn't know how to deal with files
containing "key: value" pairs (note the ":").

For the first warning, try to remove the "nis:mail.aliases" entry in
"alias_maps". Execute "postconf alias_maps" to see the current
setting ,then explicitely set it in a way that doesn't include
"nis:mail.aliases".
For the second warning you obviously have to create the "database"
file for "/var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman". See below.
Im my main.cf (for postfix) :
virtual_alias_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_aliases.cf,
mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_aliases_mailbox.cf,
hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/aliases
virtual_mailbox_maps = mysql:/etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_mailboxes.cf,
hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman
It's just plain wrong to reference "/var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-
mailman" in virtual_mailbox_maps. Remove it.
Execute "postmap /var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman". Inspect "/var/
lib/mailman/data/aliases". If this is an alias file and you need the
entries, include it in "alias_maps" and "alias_database". Execute
"newaliases" if needed. If you don't need "/var/lib/mailman/data/
aliases", remove any references to it. Restart Postfix.
Cheers
