If Mailman generates aliases (MTA = 'Postfix' in mm_cfg.py) it generates them in $var-prefix/data/aliases which in RedHat may be symlinked or redirected to /etc/mailman/aliases. > it looks like it isnt...

See the installation manual section at <http://www.list.org/mailman-install/postfix-integration.html> for the standard GNU Mailman/Postfix integration, and see the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/KYCB> for RedHat file mappings. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California Better use your sense - B.
