Hi,
I have been able to get the Mailman web interface to fully operate
satisfactorily. This includes lists consultation, subscription /
un-subscription, setup and management.
But I am not yet able to get mailing to any list accounts (ex.
myl...@domain.tld, mylist-requ...@domain.tld, etc. ) to correctly operate.
Every time a mail is sent to one of these accounts, the sender's mail gets
systematically diverted to a predefined default email account. This
indicates that the above email addresses are not recognized by Postfix as
Mailman related lists to be processed accordingly.
For example, in the below maillog trace we see that the memo initially
addressed to mysl...@domain.net by admin-eur...@waycast.eu is finally
delivered to the default account ad...@domain.net instead of being processed
by '/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post mylist' as it should normally be the
case :

Despite skimming through this Mailman-Users list and many other source
publications, I haven't yet been able to figure out the exact origin of this
abnormal behavior. Though I suspect a poorly defined Postfix 'transport'
specification (see item 7 further below), but this remains to be confirmed.
Please note that I am using a hosted VPS running CentOS with, among other
things, Plesk, Postfix and Mailman. All software versions and configuration
details are communicated below. Another piece of useful information : the
'ad...@domain.fr' default account has been specified at Plesk's web admin
interface level.
I'd therefore welcome any help on this issue. Many thanks in advance !
Regards,
Jacques

Note : The 'postfix_to_mailman.py' scheme is NOT USED as the related lines
stayed commented out.
7. Postfix Added Transport Table scheme (transport and transport.db
located in /etc/postfix/)
The below-specified transports remained commented out because they cause a
transport failure when uncommented. It seems that the specifications used
are probably invalid. These will need to be reworked and we'd welcome
suggestions as to what to specify instead...
{ .}
# *** ADDED TRANSPORT(5)
# vps12345.ovh.net mailman:
# domain.net mailman:
