[Mailman-Users] Mailman does everything except send mail
Hello I am running Mailman version 2.0.10 under Solaris 8 with qmail as MTA Mailman seems to be able to do everything except send mail - if I run newlist the list gets created OK but the message to the administrator is never sent - if I try to subscribe to a list I don't get the confirmation message - if I post to a moderated list the message shows up in the pending list but if I approve or reject the post no message is generated No attempt to send these messages shows up in the mail logs The host can send mail (via MUA or direct injection) generated by other processes I'm assuming its some problem with the wrapper that passes the mail on to the MTA?
