Well i finnaly found out my problem,,, looks like i i couldn't telnet localhost on port 25 which caused mailman to issue connection refused in smtp-failure log, what i did was edited my /etc/hosts file to include 127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain for some reason it only had ::1 localhost.localdomain localhost
i'm still testing my configuration but everything seems fine up to now > Hi, > > Through a bit more troubleshoting i realised that mailman failed to post > the messages post log for mailman shows > > Nov 21 09:49:06 2007 (6735) post to dmis-staff from [EMAIL PROTECTED], > size=2457, message-id=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, > 10 failures > > what could be the problem > > >> Eric Beda wrote: >> >>>Mailman doesn't send email, i get this in my maillog >>> >>>to=<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, relay=local, delay=60, >>>delays=60/0.01/0/0.18, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to command: >>>/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post dmis-staff) >>> >>>but the mails are never delivered to the users mailboxes, and are not >>> even >>>archived ( i set it to archive daily) >> >> >> You probably don't want daily archive volumes.
