I'm sure this has been covered many times; however nothing I've found so
far in the mailing list archives has alleviated this problem.
I've followed the mailman documentation for integrating mailman with
postfix, according to
http://www.list.org/mailman-install/postfix-virtual.html as well as
various mailing list posts on this list.
Note that I am attempting to configure a virtual_mailbox_domain with
mailman (not a virtual_alias_domain).
mm_cfg.py contains:
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['valnet.net']
MTA = 'Postfix'
DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'mail.valnet.net'
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'valnet.net'
VIRTUAL_MAILMAN_LOCAL_DOMAIN = 'valnet.net'
A mailing list was created with the newlist, which created
/etc/mailman/aliases and /etc/mailman/virtual-mailman (and their
associated db files).
I've added /etc/mailman/virtual-mailman to my virtual_alias_maps, and
added /etc/mailman/aliases to my alias_maps and alias_database in main.cf:
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, hash:/etc/mailman/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases, hash:/etc/mailman/aliases
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/mailman/virtual-mailman
If I'm reading all of the documentation correctly, that should be all
that is necessary to make it work.
Unfortunately, when I send an email to testl...@valnet.net I receive a
bounce back of:
<testl...@valnet.net>: unknown user: "testl...@valnet.net"
With an associated postfix log entry of:
Oct 10 19:22:47 mail postfix/virtual[22090]: DBF7241F5F:
to=<testl...@valnet.net>, relay=virtual, delay=0.39,
delays=0.36/0/0/0.03, dsn=5.1.1, status=bounced (unknown user:
"testl...@valnet.net")
When I test the alias maps I see:
[root@mail postfix]# postmap -q testl...@valnet.net
hash:/etc/mailman/virtual-mailman
testlist
[root@mail postfix]# postmap -q testlist hash:/etc/mailman/aliases
"|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post testlist"
That output *seems* correct, but I don't know if that's really correct
or not.
In case it's worth noting, the list administrator specified in newlist
does receive an email about the list being created.
I really think I've just missed something simple in the documentation,
but the documentation for how to do this is strung out in so many
different places and is a bit difficult to find, that I'm not entirely
certain I've read it all.
Any tips or things to check would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Nick
