You need this.

I started getting the disappearing mail problem again, though none of the references to errors from the changes I made originally. After spending a few hours going over debug files, I noticed that I kept getting a pam error. The mails were getting rejected over authentication errors. It turns out it was all a permissions problem with /sbin/unix_chkpwd. Apparently the sticky bit was not set correctly on installation. Here's a discussion of the problem: https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/422411/pam-authentication-failure-with-valid-password I still don't understand why this was a problem with mailman and not with "regular" mail, but doing the "chmod u+s /sbin/unix_chkpwd" resulted in things magically working just like it's supposed to. Thanks for the help! billo _______________________________________________ Mailman-users mailing list -- mailman-users@mailman3.org To unsubscribe send an email to mailman-users-le...@mailman3.org https://lists.mailman3.org/mailman3/lists/mailman-users.mailman3.org/ Archived at: https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/message/TXLLUA3YQFWCAIQVVELCOLKSCECH4R7H/ This message sent to arch...@mail-archive.com
