I recently installed mailman on a Debian 3.0 machine (to which I do have sudo root access, but only because the admins are nice to me, and I am not really allowed to change much). I set up a test list:
test: "|/etc/mail/smrsh/mailman_wrapper post test" test-admin: "|/etc/mail/smrsh/mailman_wrapper mailowner test" test-request: "|/etc/mail/smrsh/mailman_wrapper mailcmd test" test-owner: test-admin When I send mail to test, something unfortunate happens: Jul 29 09:35:14 suberic sm-mta[29557]: g6TDZEnw029557: from=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, size=461, class=0, nrcpts=1, msgid=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=dsl092-069-177.bos1.dsl.speakeasy.net [66.92.69.177] Jul 29 09:35:15 suberic sm-mta[29560]: g6TDZEnw029557: to="|/etc/mail/smrsh/mailman_wrapper post test", ctladdr=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]> (8/0), delay=00:00:01, xdelay=00:00:01, mailer=prog, pri=30689, dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent Jul 29 09:36:02 suberic sm-mta[29575]: g6TDa2nw029575: ruleset=check_mail, arg1=<test-admin@net>, relay=localhost [127.0.0.1], reject=553 5.1.8 <test-admin@net>... Domain of sender address test-admin@net does not exist Jul 29 09:36:02 suberic sm-mta[29575]: g6TDa2nw029575: from=<test-admin@net>, size=1282, class=0, nrcpts=0, proto=ESMTP, daemon=MTA, relay=localhost [127.0.0.1] The machine's name is suberic.net, but somehow mailman is contructing a domain of just "net", so we get addresses like "test-admin@net", which clearly don't work. So mail to the list is accepted, but does not get propogated out to the list recipients. Python version on this machine is Python 2.1.3 (#1, Apr 20 2002, 10:14:34) [GCC 2.95.4 20011002 (Debian prerelease)] on linux2 I have not had much luck getting the admins to upgrade to Python 2.2 (things depend on the other version). I am not sure that this is the problem, anyways. Does anyone have any ideas?
