I'm going to jump in here as I run Mailman with sendmail on a Solaris system. I can't comment on pecuiliarities of a Linux precompiled distribution. The Mailman installation manual goes through the steps of enabling a link to smrsh. http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-install/node32.html Additionally, you'll need to enable the sendmail smrsh capability. You need to do this by adding a line in the main.mc file for sendmail and rerunning the M4 process to recreate the sendmail.cf file. The line to add is: FEATURE(smrsh, /usr/lib/smrsh)dnl This assumes that the smrsh executable is in /usr/lib. If you are trying to run with a precompiled sendmail, you'll need to configure main.mc for a variety of things that generally aren't in default installations; the line above in "in addition to" selecting things like relay control, masquerading, access_db, virtusertable etc. etc. Hank ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
