For some reason Mailman just stopped working and I must confess that I

that when a Mailman email is sent to the Mailman server it that it
doesn't recognize it as "local" but instead tries to
relay out and then the relay sends it back and this happens multilple
times if I'm reading the logs right so I assume
that the "aliases" file for the Mailman lists isn't being "recognized"
properly by Postfix?
Yes, it sounds like a Postfix issue, but in order to say anything, we'd
need to see "postconf -n" and some relevant Postfix log messages.

Here is some info (yes, I know it's ancient):
rpm -qa | grep -i mailman
mailman-2.1.9-4.el5
/etc/postfix/main.cf:
alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases
hash:/etc/mailman/aliases
and in /etc/mailman/aliases it has the list troytest with this:

There is also a python process owned by mailman that is varying between
75-100% of the CPU.
Which one? (ps -fw)
mailman 21869 21862 92 16:16 ? 02:24:52 /usr/bin/python
/usr/lib/mailman/bin/qrunner --runner=IncomingRunner:0:1 -s
I realize that Postfix per se is out of the scope of this list but any
suggestions/tips are sincerely appreciated.
My current thinking is I need to run a "postmap" command to update the
aliases config perhaps?
The command is postalias, not postmap, and it's unlikely to help unless
perhaps you previously ran 'postmap /etc/mailman/aliases', but it
couldn't hurt to run 'postalias /etc/mailman/aliases'.
It seems to be recognizing the email as local now:
Jan 12 18:57:27 request1 sendmail[3015]: q0D1vRSU003015:
[email protected], ctladdr=root (0/0), delay=00:00:00,
xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=relay, pri=30076, relay=[127.0.0.1] [127.0.0.1],
dsn=2.0.0, stat=Sent (Ok: queued as C7FE237878)
Jan 12 18:57:28 request1 postfix/local[1069]: C7FE237878:
to=<[email protected]>, relay=local, delay=0.23,
delays=0.07/0/0/0.16, dsn=2.0.0, status=sent (delivered to command:
/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post troytest)
No email is coming out though? It should be "expanding" to my email
address?
