OK .. ran both tests as mailman. First one was fine. Second one, while
it shown no errors initially, I only received the email that was sent as
a rcpt (secondary email address). The To: email address did not get
delivered. The smtp-failure logs do not show a specific error for that
email transaction but it still shows a ton of the same errors, i.e.:
May 29 16:21:04 2009 (6489) Low level smtp error: (-2, 'Name or service
not known'), msgid: <mailman.1.1243617046.6486.some...@domain.net>
May 29 16:21:04 2009 (6489) delivery to some...@domain.org failed with
code -1: (-2, 'Name or service not known')
Both /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/hosts are world readable. I am truly stumped.
That example won't deliver to any addresses in the message headers.
Also, it won't log any errors. Error will be written to Python's
stderr (normally the terminal). It sends to the addresses in the rcpts
list as those are the only addresses communicated via SMTP. I.e., the
envelope is sent to the rcpts regardless of what the message inside
the envelope says.
OK. I'm stumped too. Check the definitions of SMTPHOST and SMTPPORT in
Defaults.py and possible overrides in mm_cfg.py to make sure they are
'localhost' and 0 respectively.
OK .. well maybe something here. In Defaults.py SMTPHOST is set to
'localhost' In mm_cfg.py, it is set to the actual public IP of the server.
Also, another thing that occurred to me at one point which I don't
think makes any difference and which looked OK in your prior post of
'ps' output, but make sure that a sendmail process didn't start on
it's own after the power failure.
chkconfig --list sendmail
or however you set these things on your system should show sendmail is
off at all run levels. sendmail should only be run by MailScanner.
sendmail is turned off at all levels.
If your python is 2.4.x or later, you can use the technique described
in the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/-IA9> to obtain debugging info
from Python's smtplib. The extra information will be written to
Mailman's error log.
No such luck. This is an older system running the latest available for
this system (2.3.4)
I am going to change mm_cfg.py to match Defaults.py or I guess I could
just comment it out?
