Another thing to try is running the 'postfix check' command to test if there are any obvious configuration errors. As I said before, I'm not familiar with a 'virtual_email2email' configuration, which is not documented on the Postfix website; I believe people just use that as their alias map configuration file name.
I'd have to defer to someone else mroe familiar with Mailman, but do you know if it works to add 'hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman' to the 'virtual_mailbox_maps' configuration to basically add the mailman addresses in as real addresses instead of aliases, then set up a transport_maps configuration for them. virtual_mailbox_maps = proxy:pgsql:/etc/postfix/pgsql-virtual_mailboxes.cf, hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman A number of support forums suggest the following type of configuration for 'transport_maps'. Most put the virtual-mailman in the virtual_alias_maps, but it really comes down to being able to find the address somewhere as valid before sending it to a designated transport. transport_maps = hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/transport-mailman, proxy:pgsql:/etc/postfix/pgsql-virtual_transports.cf On Sun, Jan 31, 2016 at 9:43 PM, wal...@ifkuk.org <wal...@ifkuk.org> wrote: > dead steven > > i ve just checked, bot variables virtual_alias_maps and > virtual_email2email point to the file /var/lib/mailman/data/virtual_mailman, > which contains: > > mail...@lists.ifkuk.org mailman > mailman-ad...@lists.ifkuk.org mailman-admin > mailman-boun...@lists.ifkuk.org mailman-bounces > mailman-conf...@lists.ifkuk.org mailman-confirm > mailman-j...@lists.ifkuk.org mailman-join > mailman-le...@lists.ifkuk.org mailman-leave > mailman-ow...@lists.ifkuk.org mailman-owner > mailman-requ...@lists.ifkuk.org mailman-request > mailman-subscr...@lists.ifkuk.org mailman-subscribe > mailman-unsubscr...@lists.ifkuk.org mailman-unsubscribe > > t...@lists.ifkuk.org test > test-ad...@lists.ifkuk.org test-admin > test-boun...@lists.ifkuk.org test-bounces > test-conf...@lists.ifkuk.org test-confirm > test-j...@lists.ifkuk.org test-join > test-le...@lists.ifkuk.org test-leave > test-ow...@lists.ifkuk.org test-owner > test-requ...@lists.ifkuk.org test-request > test-subscr...@lists.ifkuk.org test-subscribe > test-unsubscr...@lists.ifkuk.org test-unsubscribe > > i ve followed a howto when doing so, the marked as solution answer@ > > http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27431010/postfix-mailman-recipient-address-rejected-user-unknown-in-local-recipient-tab > > so what you are saying is, that i need an entry like "*@lists.ifkuk.org > XXX" <*@lists.ifkuk.orgXXX> ? > but to where should i forward it to?
