While this is probably not the best place to get help for this problem -- it's almost surely *not* a *Mailman* problem -- we will give it a try. But we need to know what exactly was upgraded and migrated, from where to where? Especially, which MTA(s) is (are) used at your site by hosts involved in list post distribution. And what address is being rejected by what server. (Feel free to post the entire rejection message. That's best. If necessary you can redact information that needs to be private, but that may make diagnosis inaccurate.) Specifically, if the SMTP server says the address doesn't exist, the problem is in the MTA configuration. The first thing to do is to check for a typo in the aliases for the MTA. The second is that some MTAs (Exim, for one) support "automatic" aliases based on certain conditions that can include the presence of config files and the like. Perhaps a prerequisite for auto-aliasing is missing for that list. There are other possibilities but those are the first ones off the top of my head. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
