Hey... reporting success! The problem has resolved after changing permissions for files residing in the /etc/mailman (data) directory to: mailman:mailman
The timestamps were ok Well actually, mailman:mailman is what I did for the 'aliases' file but (accidentally) not for 'virtual mailman' (was root:mailman). But it all works! When you have exhausted your own supply of ideas, getting help this way from experts giving their time on an honorary basis is absolutely fantastic! For anyone searching the archives, the location of the data dir is actually specified in /usr/lib/mailman/Mailman/Defaults.py under 'CONFIG_DIR' Thanks again! Michael Mailman 2.1.9 What are the ownership and permissions on /etc/mailman/aliases.db. Is the time stamp of this as recent as that on /etc/mailman/aliases? Are there any Postfix log entries related to /etc/mailman/aliases? -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
