[Mailman-Users] mail to my list - mta result: user unknown

[walter . mauritz]

Hi,

On sending a eMail to my mailing-list I get the following error.

(from tail -F -n 30 /var/log/maillog)
May  5 15:44:03 smesrv sendmail[24051]: i45Di3D5024051: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
union.org... User unknown
May  5 15:44:03 smesrv sendmail[24051]: i45Di3D5024051: from=[EMAIL PROTECTED], 
size=0, class=0, nrcpts=0, proto=SMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=pop.gmx.net [213.165.64.20]

- [EMAIL PROTECTED] --- user unknown

I have set up
- mailman 
- with sendmail
- on redhat

I have sticked to the manual of the distribution
1) INSTALL
2) README
3) README.SENDMAIL

I use a mailertable
smesrv.sme-union.orgmailman:smesrv.sme-union.org

... which should put all mails not known (like mylist isnt a system user) to the 
Mail Delivery 
Agent, defined in sendmail.mc:

#snip from /etc/mail/sendmail.mc
Mmailman, P=/etc/mail/mm-handler, F=rDFMhlqSu, U=mailman:mailman,
  S=EnvFromL, R=EnvToL/HdrToL,
  A=mm-handler $h $u
#end

- mailertable has been done in db
- sendmail.mc done to .fc
- /etc/mail/mm-handler is executable to all

But for some reason this does NOT WORK. --- user unknown

What am I doing wrong?

btw here my mm_cfg.py
#CODE 
from Defaults import *

IMAGE_LOGOS = '/icons/'

DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'smesrv.sme-union.org'
DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'smesrv.sme-union.org'

add_virtualhost('smesrv.sme-union.org','smesrv.sme-union.org')
##

Questions to you:
1) Do you know what I have done wrong?
2) Or can you tell me how to set up the aliases manually? (Where does [EMAIL 
PROTECTED]
union.org has to point in virtuser..

Thanks for any help

Regards

Walter

[Mailman-Users] on mailing to my list: user (=listname) unknown; (sendmail-mailman config error?)

[walter . mauritz]

Hi,

I have installed 
- mailman
- apache
- sendmail

Successfully created a list, got a confirmation eMail from list. But on mailing to the 
list listname = mylist, I get the following error:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:
217.136.223.232_does_not_like_recipient./Remote_host_said:_550_5.1.1_[EMAIL PROTECTED]
me-union.org..._User_unknown/Giving_up_on_217.136.223.232./

It seems to me like the mail delivery agent tries to put the mail to the correct user 
mylist, 
who doesn't exist. So what can I do that mailman recognizes its for him.

Further information:
- smesrv.sme-union.org = 217.136.223.232

- On Configuration I followed the INSTALL and the README, being included in the 
mailman 
distribution.

- Furthermore in sendmail, /etc/mail/access there is no discard ... which could 
falsly 
generate that 550 error message

- mm_cfg.py:
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'smesrv.sme-union.org'
DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'smesrv.sme-union.org'
add_virtualhost('smesrv.sme-union.org','smesrv.sme-union.org')

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Is there any further information about the 
system which 
I should provide?

Regards

Walter
