Mailman delivers the message by SMTP to the server listening at the host and port defined by SMTPHOST and SMTPPORT. You haven't changed the defaults in mm_cfg.py, so they are SMTPHOST = 'localhost' SMTPPORT = 0 # default from smtplib (SMTPPORT = 0 tells smtplib to use the standard SMTP port - 25) So as indicated by the above message, Mailman is delivering to your local sendmail. >Mar 24 14:27:14 wwwtest sendmail[12570]: o2OEREo5012569: >to=<r...@wwwtest.xxx.uk>, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=local, >pri=139300, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent Which appears to deliver locally to r...@wwwtest.xxx.uk. >Mar 24 14:27:14 wwwtest sendmail[12572]: o2OERET3012572: >from=<mailman-boun...@mercury.xxx.uk>, size=2625, class=-60, nrcpts=1, >msgid=<mailman.8.1269440833.27154.mail...@mercury.xxx.uk>, proto=ESMTP, >daemon=MTA, relay=localhost.localdomain [127.0.0.1] > >Mar 24 14:27:14 wwwtest sendmail[12574]: o2OERET3012572: >to=<mailman-ow...@mercury.xxx.uk>, delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, >mailer=relay, pri=230625, relay=mercury.xxx.uk.
