Dear members,
I have fully working setup Sendmail 8.14.5 + Cyrus-SASL 2.1.25 (the server
delivers mail, accept mail and working as ordinary mail server with LDAP
functionality by getting users' passwords from LDAP database). For now I'm
trying to add majordomo mail lists to the server, but unsuccessful.
I beat with it for some days with no result, unfortunately. Please give
some advice where is an error could be? Highly appreciate your help.
More detailed description is below:
I've installed majordomo and groff from openbsd5.1/ports and make all the
configuration changes which were need to do by hand (as described in
/usr/local/doc/majordomo/post-install-notes):
1. Added user '_majordomo' to group '_majordomo' by editing '/etc/group'
file
#cat /etc/group | grep majordomo
_majordomo:*:520:_majordomo
2. Reviewed '/etc/majordomo/majordomo.cf' by adding my "domain.org"
#cat /etc/majordomo/majordomo.cf | grep mydomain.org
$whereami = "mydomain.org";
3. Added '_majordomo' user to a trusted sendmail users in
'/etc/mail/trusted-users' file. Rebuilt and installed
'/usr/share/sendmail/cf/openbsd-proto.mc' with 'use_ct_file' option
enabled.
#cat /etc/mail/trusted-users | grep majordom
_majordomo
all the parameters below are present in /etc/mail/sendmail.cf after build
#cat /usr/share/sendmail/cf/openbsd-proto.mc
...
dnl
FEATURE(`use_ct_file')dnl
dnl
...
dnl
MAILER(`local')dnl
MAILER(`smtp')dnl
dnl
define(`confLOCAL_MAILER', `cyrusv2')dnl
MAILER(`cyrusv2')dnl
....
4. Created majordomo aliases file in '/etc/mail/mj-alias-mydomain.org'.
Rebuilt 'openbsd-proto.mc' with feature `ALIAS_FILE' which points to
'aliases' and 'mj-alias-mydomain.org' file. Hash has been generated from
these files successfully. '/var/log/maillog' shows that 'aliases' and
'mj-alias-mydomain.org.db' are correctly built and used by sendmail.
#cat /var/log/maillog
...

I have symbolic link between original 'majordomo's' file and
'/etc/mail/mj-alias mydomain.org' file
#ln -s /var/spool/majordomo/lists/mj-alias-mydomain.org /etc/mail/
mj-alias-mydomain.org
5. The file 'mj-alias-mydomain.org' contains required listnames:
#cat /etc/mail/mj-alias-mydomain.org
majordomo: "|/usr/local/lib/majordomo/wrapper resend -l
mj-alias-mydomain.org majordomo-list"
majordomo-list :include:/etc/mail/mj-alias-mydomain.org
majordomo-request: "|/usr/local/lib/majordomo/wrapper request-answer
mj-alias-mydomain.org"
majordomo-approval: admin
majordomo-owner: admin
owner-majordomo: majordomo-owner
6. The output of 'config-test' give me no errors at all, but majordomo not
working though.

You have defined a mailer for delivering administrative messages.
Attempting to verify that this is a valid mailer...looks okay.
------------------ Checking majordomo.cf ------------------
Checking to see if there are new variables that should be in
your majordomo.cf file...Nope, none that I see.
Have you configured where Majordomo is?
$whereami is mydomain.org
Good: yup!
----------------------- end of tests -----------------------
Nothing bad found! Majordomo _should_ work correctly.
If it doesn't, check your configuration file
(/etc/majordomo/majordomo.cf)
closely, and if it still looks okay, consider asking the majordomo-users
mailing list at "majordomo-us...@greatcircle.com" for assistance. Be sure
and fully specify what your problems are, and what type of machine (and
operating system) you are using.
Enjoy!
