Thanks, I've added this to the wiki page.

consulting /var/spool/postfix/etc/hosts, and I had to change
both /etc/hosts

instead of /etc/hosts.

That's because LaMont Jones delivers the Debian/Ubuntu Postfix package chrooted. If Postfix runs chrooted it uses /var/spool/postfix/etc/ hosts

Ah, the pieces click together.  Thanks!

BTW: Postfix notes that /etc/hosts and /var/spool/postfix/etc/hosts differ on reload (at least on Debian/Ubuntu) and it sends a simliar note to syslog.

Yeah, that's how I found out about it in the first place. ;)

I know experience tells us not to look at logs because logging and writing documentation is something you only get when you pay for it... ;) However with

Postfix it pays to read the log. Wietse did a good job on this.

Indeed!

Yep, I like setting the service name to mailman3.  I'll note that
Ubuntu's Postfix-Dovecot package already has a service for mailman
(i.e. 2.x) which uses postfix-to-mailman.py.

to the Postfix default master.cf file.

If we came up with a reasonable set of default settings for the mailman3 service I take these to the Postfix developer list and try to have them added

+1.  I've opened LP bug 490030 to track the changes needed in Mailman.

Excellent!  I forgot that one other thing must happen before 3.0 can
be released; we need a migration script from 2.1.x to 3.0.

May I complement the list?

Yep, it's actually on my TODO list after I get 3.0a4 out. I also need to finish setting up i18n.

+1. IIRC, Terri was going to look into this, but I'm not sure what's happened with that.
