Anyway, it will not work. Since Mailman identifies lists by the name
(without @domain.com), if you need a second "test" list in another
domain, you'll have no way to do it.

People who requests help for free on a mailing list should at least
try not to hide information. If you give the actual names and not
fakes, I could study the case (I suspect myvirtual.com is actually a
CNAME).

H... That's odd.

I can tell you what we wound up doing on our new server.  We tried for a
week to get it to work in a virtual domain - it just wouldn't work with our
server set up, so we wound up putting it on the root of the machine.  Now,
it's not truly set up as a virtual site, as it would have been under the
software on the machine, so you don't get the nice GUI and that for the back
end, but Mailman WORKS.  It sounds like you got much farther than we did.
Good luck sorting it out.  We couldn't find any info on our particular set
up running mailman, so we had to improvise and compromise.

[Mailman-Users] Yet another virtual domain question

2002-04-18 Thread Todd Slater

I've been scouring the archives regarding Mailman and virtual domains, but can't get 
it to work. My setup: Mailman 2.0.7, postfix, Linux-Mandrake 8.1.

What I did (following Jon Carnes instructions):

Created new list
Added aliases to /etc/postfix/aliases, ran newaliases
Edited /etc/postfix/virtual to reflect:
myvirtual.com virtual
[EMAIL PROTECTED] test
[EMAIL PROTECTED] test-request (and so on for the other aliases)

Ran postmap /etc/postfix/virtual
Stopped and started postfix.

Went to Web admin, changed Host name this list prefers and Alias names (regexps).

When I attempt to subscribe via the web I get the subscription message which comes 
from [EMAIL PROTECTED], but when I reply to confirm, I get a postfix user not 
found error, and it says [EMAIL PROTECTED] is the address that can't be 
found.

What am I doing wrong?

TIA,
Todd
