You need alias_maps to tell postfix to use /var/lib/mailman/data/aliases (and /var/lib/mailman/data/aliases.db). >My question is: Afaik mailman does not need to work with mysql (where >all virtual emails, mailadress owners etc. are stored in).

See <http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node13.html> and <http://www.list.org/mailman-install/postfix-virtual.html>. You need virtual_maps with virtual domains. You need alias_maps in any case. The former admin's configuration was probably what you need. If you really think there is a better way, this is a Postfix issue and would better be addressed on a Postfix list. -- Mark Sapiro <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
