Re: [Mailman-Users] Moderator and Admin emails not being sent...

 It appears that the problem is that your alias for sandia-owner is

 sandia-owner:  |/home/gileszone/mailman/mail/mailman post sandia

 instead of

 sandia-owner:  |/home/gileszone/mailman/mail/mailman owner sandia


 Thus mailman sends the notice to sandia-owner and instead of being
 received as a message to -owner, it is received as a post and
 discarded as being a post from a non-member.

 You would probably do well to check all your aliases.


Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.  Finally tracked down my
issue.  My aliases were set up properly, problem was I had a custom rewrite
rule in sendmail going on to forward all emails in the form
user-anytexth...@domain.com to be directed to the address u...@domain.com.
 Thus, the emails sent to sandia-ow...@domain.com were being forwarded
instead to san...@domain.com.

I've re-written my rules to only forward emails from actual users on my
domain in that form, and to not do any rewriting of the email address for
other emails.

Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction of thought!

[Mailman-Users] Moderator and Admin emails not being sent...

[Todd Giles]

I've been debugging this for some time now, multiple google searches, etc...
all to no avail.  I have a mailman list setup and working fine, with the
exception of moderator and admin emails not being sent (at least not
received).  I've narrowed down to one fairly simple test case, that is to
leave an unmoderated email in the list, and then to run the following
command on my server:
% /usr/local/bin/python -S checkdbs

After running this command, my expectation is to get an email sent out
notifying me of the unmoderated email in the list.  I never get this email,
but I do get the following entries in various logs directly after running
that above command:

/var/log/maillog:

Apr  2 18:22:02 gileszone.com sendmail[12438]: n330M2rP012438:

Apr 02 18:22:03 2009 (9071) Message discarded, msgid: 
mailman.0.1238718120.12361.san...@gileszone.com

All other mailman logs have no new entries. I've verified many times that
the list owner email address is setup properly (which it is - with a single
entry of this email address).  I'm currently at a loss as to why I'm unable
to get admin and moderator emails sent out to me --- any help would be
greatly appreciated!

Thanks,

-Todd
