[Mailman-Users] The newaliases file and the fact that it's not needed
Hello, I have just installed anc configured mailman on our mail server, and it seems to be working perfectly. I added the system aliases into /etc/aliases and configured exim as per the documentation on the mailman web site. I configured it in such a way that exim didn't need to know about new mailing lists. However, even though mailman is handling mailing lists successfully without them being in /etc/aliases, every time I create a new list, I get the following email: == The mailing list `it' has been created via the through-the-web interface. In order to complete the activation of this mailing list, the proper /etc/aliases (or equivalent) file must be updated. The program `newaliases' may also have to be run. Here are the entries for the /etc/aliases file: it: |/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post it it-admin:|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin it it-bounces: |/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces it it-confirm: |/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm it it-join: |/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join it it-leave:|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave it it-owner:|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner it it-request: |/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request it it-subscribe:|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe it it-unsubscribe: |/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe it == Is there a way I can tell mailman that this doesn't actually have to be done, so it can stop reminding me, or will we continue to get these emails regardless? Or... Do I actually *need* to add the stuff above into /etc/aliases? There is currently no mention of an 'it' mailing list on /etc/aliases at the moment, and mailman is processing mail for it perfectly, but if this just luck? Below are the two sections which I added to /etc/exim4/exim4.conf: == # Mailman stuff # Home dir for your Mailman installation -- aka Mailman's prefix # directory. MAILMAN_HOME=/var/lib/mailman MAILMAN_WRAP=MAILMAN_HOME/mail/wrapper # User and group for Mailman, should match your --with-mail-gid # switch to Mailman's configure script. MAILMAN_USER=list MAILMAN_GROUP=list # End of Mailman stuff == == # Mailman stuff mailman_router: driver = accept require_files = MAILMAN_HOME/lists/$local_part/config.pck local_part_suffix_optional local_part_suffix = -bounces : -bounces+* : \ -confirm+* : -join : -leave : \ -owner : -request : -admin transport = mailman_transport # End of Mailman stuff == Does anyone know why this is happening? I guess mailman doesn't know that exim is configured to not care about new lists, but is there a way to tell it?

Re: [Mailman-Users] Bug in Mailman 2.1.6b4
Thanks for the information. You are correct, I have not seen anything in the Apache logs, however, I have not seen anything logged to mailman's logs either. Is there a way to disable stealth mode? I know this could cause security implications but may need to do this temporarily to find and fix the problem. We will be upgrading to Mailman 2.1.6 in the next week but am not feeling that this will fix the problem.

We will be upgrading to Mailman 2.1.6 in the next week but am not feeling that this will fix the problem. You may want to read the doc here: http://www.list.org/faq.html and search for STEALTH. I spoke in error, the local logging is not to your mailman error log but rather to syslog. Please note syslog is handled differently on different systems, you may have to tweak your syslog configuration to log the mailman errors. The only way I know of to disable STEALTH_MODE is to change its hardcoded setting in the driver script, you will have to locate this file and edit it. However, if you can, it really would be better to get your syslog working, you do want these errors logged and it really is better to keep sensitive information out of the public eye. -- John Dennis [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=showamp;file=faq01.027.htp
