Installing mailman 2.1.20 on a working postfix-dovecot-mysql mail server. Trying to use hash for Mailman aliases.
In /etc/postfix/main.cf, I have alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/aliases I ran 'newlist mailman at command line.' This is the aliases file contents. # This file is generated by Mailman, and is kept in sync with the # binary hash file aliases.db. YOU SHOULD NOT MANUALLY EDIT THIS FILE # unless you know what you're doing, and can keep the two files properly # in sync. If you screw it up, you're on your own. # The ultimate loop stopper address mailman-loop: /var/lib/mailman/data/owner-bounces.mbox # STANZA START: mailman # CREATED: Fri Jun 14 13:09:26 2019 mailman: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman" mailman-admin: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin mailman" mailman-bounces: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces mailman" mailman-confirm: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm mailman" mailman-join: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join mailman" mailman-leave: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave mailman" mailman-owner: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner mailman" mailman-request: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request mailman" mailman-subscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe mailman" mailman-unsubscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe mailman" # STANZA END: mailman I ran bin/genaliases. I then subscribed some email addresses to the mailman list and sent a test distribution email which was bounced back with errors as follows: This is the mail system at host naturalintelligence.us.
