Re: problem using default@our.domain entry for ezmlm + qmail-ldap

[Nicolas de Bari Embriz Garcia Rojas]

When using ezmlm, no Maildir should be created, there is no need for it. maybe that is your problem you are not correctly installing / configuring the ezmlm list based on your on configuration, the dot filese are on: /var/ezmlm/ and the lists are on  lists and the ezmlm files are on ops I think that is wrong or at least I have never configured ezmlm in tha way, i use to treat mailing lists  has if they were normal users just with out a Maildir folder why not just try to create a normal user, verify that the account works, then just via sell enter to the dir where the maildir is located and to this: --- ezmlm-make -udigt -5 [EMAIL PROTECTED] /var/ezmlm/testuser /var/ezmlm/testuser/.qmail list yourdomain.org --- after doing that, modify your ldif remember it is not going to be a normal user, it will be a mailint list, verify this: accountStatus: nopop qmailDotMode: dotonly then only check the perms  regards On Jan 27, 2006, at 12:25 AM, jay alvarez wrote: Nicolas de Bari Embriz Garcia Rojas <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From a previous post: ------- Hi, you just need to add the attribute mailAlternetAddress to the user that you want to catch all the email mailAlternateAddress: [EMAIL PROTECTED] After doing that all the email that goes to [EMAIL PROTECTED] will be catched by the [EMAIL PROTECTED] that has the catchall attribute. also you can use it in this way: [EMAIL PROTECTED] and all the email that goes to user-* will  be catched to the email account that has that attribute, this is useful for using a mailing list just like ezmlm hope this can give you an idea on the catchall feature, there maybe other ways to use it but this are the ones that I use more frequently -------- Try to put a catchall to an account that works on your server and it if works then try with your mailing list, also check that /var/ezmlm/lists exists and under that directory it is the name of the list, what i mean is that if /var/ezmlm/lists is the maildir of your list you should have there the .dot files for the mailing list Ok, here is one account that works well.
