You have not created or moved your site list (named mailman) to the new installation. Thus, mailmanctl refuses to start the queue runners. >2) sending emails doesn't work. I've configured exim4 as described (fixing the >path problem to the config.pck).

There are no other log entries however, not in messages, >main.log, or mailman/error. The exim log looks fine. I think the messages are being delivered just fine and are in /var/lib/mailman/qfiles/in/, but they aren't being processed because the queue runners aren't running because of problem 1. BTW, John Dennis has posted in the past that the FC4 Mailman package includes a script for migrating everything from the old locations to the new. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
