I have a new Mailman implementation connected to Postfix which is in
turn connected to Dovecot. These two components are working correctly,
as I have mailboxes set up with them and have created a test Mailman
mailing list and received confirmation that it has in fact been
created. Now I'm attempting to subscribe a test user in the normal
way, by sending an email to {list-name}-subscr...@mydomain.com. I have
not received a subscription confirmation, but the following
information from /var/log/mailman/error shows a problem:
Jul 02 14:15:01 2015 gate_news(18693): Traceback (most recent call
last):

drwxrwsr-x 2 root mailman 80 Jul 2 13:57 mailman
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 11 Sep 14 2012 lock -> ../run/lock
I also receive messages like these about every fifteen minutes in
/var/log/mailman/bounce:

Thanks in advance for any assistance. I suspect it's something I've
overlooked.
