2010/12/30 Mark Sapiro m...@msapiro.net If your list mail domain is local in Postfix, all you need is alias_maps.

[Mailman-Users] User unknown messages

He has defined a group in Lotus Notes, which comprises the different list serves, and when he sends mail to the group, the mail is not being delivered.

The directory is working properly.

I am not seeing anything in the mailman or sendmail logs to see any other failures. Has any one seen this? Are we reaching some threshold causing this problem?

Re: [Mailman-Users] User unknown messages
I want to include some more information that may help try to figure this out. Mail was sent to one list serve with 19 members, another list serve that had 32 members was not delivered. BTW, the person sending the mail is not the list owner that I originally reported but is a list member. This user does not have the moderate flag set on either list in membership management. Also, if it matters we are using MM 2.1.6b4.

That is correct. According to the sender, this used to work but does not now. No changes have been made to the list (AFAIK) and none to the mailman software. What happens when a post is sent directly to one of these lists, not via the Lotus Notes group? I asked the user to send mail from Lotus Notes to the listserve and it does the same thing. Just to you know, the sender has several list serves he is mailing to. In one case, the mail was delivered (to 19 members), the other was not delivered (to 32 members). I am checking the configuration of both list serves and conparing them. I will let you know what I find out.

Re: [Mailman-Users] User unknown messages
Hello, Thanks for all the help but I got resolution from our spam filter vendor Roaring Penguin. Apparently, the issue was a side effect of the interaction of the Mailman and CanIt-PRO, the spam filter software we have implemented on our mail machines. It seems that if there was one address in the list that was bad it would cause the whole message to be rejected. Their recommendation changes cause Mailman to submit mail through the mail server's address rather than from localhost. Since the mail no longer appears to be coming from 'localhost', CanIt-PRO will do address validation at RCPT time rather than waiting until after the DATA phase. Before the change, canit would reject the message if there was one bad recipient, now it will rejects only the bad recipients.

Whatever the issue is that is preventing delivery of the 32, it is not detected until later in the process when the MTA attempts to deliver to the 32 recipients. Is there any difference in the form of the actual member addresses between the two lists? Here are the recommended changes from the vendor: 1) In /etc/mail/access, add this line: Connect:mailserver1.odu.edu RELAY 2) Rebuild the access DB: make -C /etc/mail 3) Edit Mailman's Defaults.py file.

Permissions for both files is 0660. Would you suggest that I change both to owner = list and group = www-data and then run bin/genaliases? The aliases file only has information for 2 of my lists - The 2 that work BTW!

[Mailman-Users] User unknown in local recipient table Error
I've got two lists up and running after a new install of Mailman 2.1.5 (RH E 3, Apache 2.0.46, Postfix 2.0.16) but when I went to create a third list today everything went fine until I sent an email to test the new list. The message came right back with a User unknown in local recipient table error. I did a search of the documentation/troubleshooting and this list's archives and tried changing the local_recipient_maps in main.cf for Postfix. When I did that I get a database loop for admin error for the new list that again bounces the message back to me. The other two lists run just fine with the Postfix variable local_recipient_maps commented out. The Postfix aliases are the same for all three lists except for the list name, of course. By the way, this third list created today was created with Mailman Admin while the others I did from the command line. Any ideas on why this is happening or where I might look to see what is causing this?

Hi, I'm brand new to Mailman. I've created a Mailing list test and subscribed to the list via my email address, the message gets sent as: [EMAIL PROTECTED] But when I click the reply button, and then click send, I get the following: Apr 2 22:35:37 pcserv sendmail[25359]: h32CZaDm025359: [EMAIL PROTECTED]... User unknown Any ideas how to fix this? Your help is appreciated.

Have you updated your aliases and run newalias for your list? Anthony On Wednesday 02 April 2003 14:36, Michael Mansour wrote: Hi, I'm brand new to Mailman.

User unknown This is your MTA (sendmail) telling you it does not know about the list's mail alias(es). Have you added the list's mail aliases to the sendmail aliases file and rebuilt the sendmail aliases database? Typically, on Linux, you should have added the new list's mail aliases to a file such as /etc/mail/aliases and run make in the directory /etc/mail or some similar incantation depending on the brand of *nix you are running.

Have you added the list's mail aliases to the sendmail aliases file and rebuilt the sendmail aliases database? Which is better, to add the name to the aliases file or to put it into the virtusertable? Of course, this doesn't just apply to Mailman, but to any user I'm aliasing. Does anyone know the real rules about what's an alias and who is a virtual user? My guess is that aliases would be used for real accounts on the system but that virtual users would be programs like Mailman or users who don't have a physical account on system but are using a system address. Thoughts?

[Mailman-Users] User Unknown error
Just set up mailman (current version) and all went well, until I created the first user account. From that user account, the confirmation email won't go through, says error 550, User [EMAIL PROTECTED] unknown. I'm running on RH Linux version 6.0, with kernel 2.2.5-15 Thanks for any help.
