When you create a list in Mailman it prints out the aliases that you need to copy and then paste into your /etc/aliases file.
Here is an example of a list called HR: hr: "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post hr" hr-admin: "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner hr" hr-request: "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd hr" hr-owner: hr-admin And in my case the alias for mailman is... mailman: jonc mailman-owner: mailman That should do it... - Jon Carnes ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jonas Meurer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "mailman-users" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, November 20, 2001 4:55 AM Subject: [Mailman-Users] mail-aliases make problems > Hey ho, > In the mailman-documentation I've read that I should put > mailman:root > mailinglist:mailman > mailinglist-request:mailman > etc. in /etc/mail/aliases. > > But now, if so. sends a mail to mailinlist-request, the mail is in the > end forwardet to root, and mailman can't process it.
