Apparently, the DSN can't be returned to testing-boun...@mydomain.com. This is also a problem. Do you have a full set of aliases for this list? >Apr 24 21:54:19 www sendmail[14883]: n3P2sIXc014880: n3P2sJXc014883: >postmaster notify: User unknown Is this message a list welcome message or a confirmation request? Check the relevant template for problems, although I can't imagine what they'd be. The welcome template is subscribeack.txt, the confirmation request is verify.txt. The default templates are in templates/LL/ where LL is the list's prefered language code or the code of the user's preferred language, but there could be list specific templates in lists/LISTNAME/LL/, domain specific templates in templates/DOMAIN/LL or site specific templates in templates/site/LL. Also check Mailman's logs. Does Mailman work otherwise? Is it able to send other mail? A quick google for 'sendmail "data format error"' indicates this may mean that the sending domain (mydomain.com) may not have DNS records. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
