I'm setting up a new CentOS8 mailman server to take over from our ancient existing one, and have run into some issues trying to get it working.
I installed mailman from source, following the directions here: https://wiki.list.org/DOC/How%20do%20I%20upgrade%20a%20RHEL/CentOS%20Mailman%20package%20from%20source. I'm at: https://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-install/postfix-integration.html Run the bin/genaliases script to initialize your aliases file. % cd /usr/local/mailman % bin/genaliases But when I do this I get the following. Am I supposed to create these data/aliases files manually? Where are they supposed to go? There is no data/ directory in /usr/lib/mailman and /var/lib/mailman has a data directory but nothing inside named aliases [root@dhbmailman2 mailman]# bin/genaliases To finish creating your mailing list, you must edit your /etc/aliases (or equivalent) file by adding the following lines, and possibly running the `newaliases' program: ## newserver_test mailing list newserver_test: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post newserver_test" newserver_test-admin: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin newserver_test" newserver_test-bounces: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces newserver_test" newserver_test-confirm: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm newserver_test" newserver_test-join: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join newserver_test" newserver_test-leave: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave newserver_test" newserver_test-owner: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner newserver_test" newserver_test-request: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request newserver_test" newserver_test-subscribe: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe newserver_test" newserver_test-unsubscribe: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe newserver_test" ## mailman mailing list mailman: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman" mailman-admin: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin mailman" mailman-bounces: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces mailman" mailman-confirm: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm mailman" mailman-join: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join mailman" mailman-leave: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave mailman" mailman-owner: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner mailman" mailman-request: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request mailman" mailman-subscribe: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe mailman" mailman-unsubscribe: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe mailman" -- Bruce Johnson University of Arizona College of Pharmacy Information Technology Group Institutions do not have opinions, merely customs ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list -- mailman-users@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to mailman-users-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/mailman-users.python.org/ Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: https://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users@python.org/ https://mail.python.org/archives/list/mailman-users@python.org/
