[Mailman-Users] Don`t get my mailinglist to run (mailman postfix)
Dear list, a couple of month age I succesfully installed mailman and postfix, but that time somehow it does not work. I need to install a mailinglist on a server of the university of Osnabrueck. Debian Etch is installed there. Postfix runs finely. I made some tests with the php-command mail and could sent mails to my self. I installed mailman from source with ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mailman --with-groupname=mailman --with-username=mailman --with-mail-gid=postfix --with-cgi-gid=apacheuser --with-mailhost=igf-srv-gin.igf.Uni-Osnabrueck.de --with-urlhost=igf-srv-gin.igf.Uni-Osnabrueck.de bin/check_perms gave no errors at all. I created a side wide mailinglist,started the mailman qrunner,site password and can create a new mailinglist at: http://igf-srv-gin.igf.uni-osnabrueck.de/mailman/create ...and the list is created, also the entries in /usr/local/mailman/aliases: # STANZA START: big_test # CREATED: Fri May 16 19:30:00 2008 big_test: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post big_test big_test-admin: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman admin big_test big_test-bounces: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman bounces big_test big_test-confirm: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman confirm big_test big_test-join:|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman join big_test big_test-leave: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman leave big_test big_test-owner: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman owner big_test big_test-request: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman request big_test big_test-subscribe: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe big_test big_test-unsubscribe: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe big_test I can register as a new user to the list and get a confirmation mail.I confirm subscribing and try to send mails to that list but they are not send to the registered users Can anyone help please?? And I have another question: To send mails to [EMAIL PROTECTED] is a really complicated name. is there a possibility to send it to (for example): [EMAIL PROTECTED] But how and where can I define my_adress.de.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Don`t get my mailinglist to run (mailman postfix)
Hi Stefan,
thank you very much for answering.
In the logfile of mailman/log/smtp it`s written:
May 16 19:30:01 2008 (3226) [EMAIL PROTECTED] smtp to big_test for 1 recips,
completed in 0.027 seconds
May 16 19:33:55 2008 (3226) [EMAIL PROTECTED] smtp to big_test for 1 recips,
completed in 0.030 seconds
May 16 19:34:27 2008 (3226) [EMAIL PROTECTED] smtp to big_test for 1 recips,
completed in 0.005 seconds
...I think that are logs after subscribing to the list.
I don`t understand that, because I sent out mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] at 19:45
and 20:00, but there are no entries in the logs.
Also in the log-file of postfix there are mo entries at that time.
But there are entries like:
May 16 19:34:27 igf-srv-gin postfix/smtpd[3684]: connect from
localhost[127.0.0.1]
May 16 19:34:27 igf-srv-gin postfix/smtpd[3684]: 1EB28F96F:

May 16 19:34:27 igf-srv-gin postfix/qmgr[1279]: 1EB28F96F: removed
...thesee entires came also after I registered to my own list.
That`s weird. It looks like there is no connection to posfix if I sent as a
member of the list a mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Do you have any idea what can cause that?
Seems as if it will be a long night for me.
Thank you again, Kai

We would need some more logging information. For example, is there
anything in the Postfix mail log (usually /var/log/maillog or
something similar)? Is there anything in mailman's error or smtp log?
And I have another question:
To send mails to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
is a really complicated name. is there a possibility to send it to (for
example):
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
But how and where can I define my_adress.de.
Yo can add alias addresses which mailman feels responsible for in the
admin web interface:
http://your listserver/mailman/admin/listname/privacy/recipient
The option name is acceptable_aliases. Then you just need to have
control over a mailserver to define an alias from [EMAIL PROTECTED]
to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (and of course, the MX
record for my_adress.de must point to that particular server).
Ciao

mail-functions. I will test it now with a private server.

Dear users,
I try to get to run mailman postfix now on a private server.
With mailman everything seems to be ok, well at least I don`t get any error
messages after bin/check_perms -f
and can`t see any errors in /usr/local/mailman/logs/*
again I can create list and subscribe to them. But if I sent a mail to the new
list nothing is delivered.

It means that this Postfix is not configured to relay mail from
mail.gmx.net to geoplp.de, presumably because neither domain is
considered local by this Postfix.
Resolving this is a Postfix issue, not a Mailman issue.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Question to mailman and postfix
Hi Mark, Your aliases are wrong. When you edited your 'mailman' aliases that looked like mailman: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman etc, you replaced too many 'mailman occurrences. You changed the above into testing_b: |/usr/local/testing_b/mail/testing_b post testing_b instead of testing_b: |/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post testing_b Sep 17 19:56:41 h1228898 postfix/smtpd[10550]: disconnect from mail.gmx.net[213.165.64.20] Sep 17 19:56:41 h1228898 postfix/local[10555]: 3BAE917443AD: to=[EMAIL PROTECTED], relay=local, delay=0.1, delays=0.08/0.01/0/0.02, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure.

[Mailman-Users] Question to mailman and postfix
Dear list, as I had no success in combining mailman and sendmail I try it now with mailman and postfix. I configured mailman like: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mailman --with-groupname=mailman --with-username=mailman --with-mail-gid=nogroup --with-cgi-gid=www-data --with-mailhost=h1228898.stratoserver.net --with-urlhost=h1228898.stratoserver.net and installed it. In the log-files of mailman there are no errors at all. Again I can create new list and subscribe users. But if I write a mail from my gmx-account to the new list/testing_b) it`s not delivered. In the log-file of Postfix it`s written: Sep 17 19:56:41 h1228898 postfix/smtpd[10550]: connect from mail.gmx.net[213.165.64.20] Sep 17 19:56:41 h1228898 postfix/smtpd[10550]: 3BAE917443AD: client=mail.gmx.net[213.165.64.20] Sep 17 19:56:41 h1228898 postfix/cleanup[10554]: 3BAE917443AD: message-id=[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sep 17 19:56:41 h1228898 postfix/qmgr[10525]: 3BAE917443AD: from=[EMAIL PROTECTED], size=1134, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Sep 17 19:56:41 h1228898 local[10556]: fatal: execvp /usr/local/testing_b/mail/testing_b: No such file or directory Sep 17 19:56:41 h1228898 postfix/smtpd[10550]: disconnect from mail.gmx.net[213.165.64.20] Sep 17 19:56:41 h1228898 postfix/local[10555]: 3BAE917443AD: to=[EMAIL PROTECTED], relay=local, delay=0.1, delays=0.08/0.01/0/0.02, dsn=4.3.0, status=deferred (temporary failure.

[Mailman-Users] Problem with mailman in combination with sendmail
Dear list, I try to get to run mailman 2.1.9 with sendmail on Debian 4.0. With mailman everything seems to be fine. Well, I can create new lists and get a confirmation of that. Check_perms -f says that everything is all right and in the log-files of mailman are no errors at all. I configured it with: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mailman --with-mail-gid=mail --with-cgi-gid=www-data --with-mailhost=h1228898.stratoserver.net --with-urlhost=h1228898.stratoserver.net With: --with-mail-gid=mail I am not so very sure. In the manual is written: On systems using sendmail, the ‘sendmail.cf’ configuration file designates the group id of sendmail processes using the DefaultUser option. So I watched sendmail.cf and it`s written: # default UID (can be username or userid:groupid) O DefaultUser=mail:mail I added the user mail with useradd -g mail -s /bin/false mail - so this should be correct?

In sendmail.cf there is No entry for smrsh, so I should not have that. The problem is still: If I send a mail to the mailinglist it`s not posted to the members of the list. Has anybode experiences with mailman in combination with sendmail? Is there anything that is important to look at? What I don`t understand: If I get a confirmation after creating a mailinglist or after subscribing a user to a list it should mean that sendmail runs correctly? Or not Thank you very much, Kai -- Pt!

[Mailman-Users] Problem to install mailman from source
Dear list, after the problem I had yesterday in getting to run mailman-lists I try to install it now from source. I use Debian 4.0 and mailman.2.1.19 In the directory /usr/local/mailman/mailman-2.1.19 I run as root: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mailman --with-mail-gid=mailman --with-cgi-gid=www-data --with-mailhost=www.tourismus-osnabrueck.de --with-urlhost=www.tourismus-osnabrueck.de after that a make and a make install, everything seems to be fine. But: If I look then in /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py there are no special entries, it looks like: -- # Copyright (C) 1998,1999,2000,2001,2002 by the Free Software Foundation, Inc. # # This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or # modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License # as published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 # of the License, or (at your option) any later version. # # This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, # but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of # MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

This module contains your site-specific settings. From a brand new distribution it should be copied to mm_cfg.py. If you have already have an mm_cfg.py, be careful to add in only the new settings you want. Mailman's installation procedure will never overwrite your mm_cfg.py file. The complete set of distributed defaults, with documentation, are in the file Defaults.py. In mm_cfg.py, override only those you want to change, after the from Defaults import * line (see below). Note that these are just default settings; many can be overridden via the administrator and user interfaces on a per-list or per-user basis. ### # Here's where we get the distributed defaults. from Defaults import * ## # Put YOUR site-specific settings below this line. --- Because of that (it seems) my mailman does not run. How can this be??? Thank you very much, Kai -- GMX FreeMail: 1 GB Postfach, 5 E-Mail-Adressen, 10 Free SMS.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Problem to install mailman from source
Hello Mark, --with-mailhost= is the domain to which you address list mail. Do you really send your list mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] In your previous posts, your mail host was lists.gforge.geoplp.de Yes, thats true. I have cleaned my system and do now everything from the beginning on, I also use another domain. I do it (nearly) the way that is described in the GNU Mailman Installation Manual. What special entries are you looking for? What you have is an mm_cfg.py from a fresh install. Did you have a previous mm_cfg.py at /usr/local/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py? If so, it shouldn't have been overwritten, but if it was somewhere else, it's still there. All right, I thought if I would use the configure-parameter (e.g. --with-mailhost=www.tourismus-osnabrueck.de) they would be written automatically in the mm_cfg.py. So if I have a fresh mm_cfg.py I can write own entries there and after starting mailman again they are used?? According to the aliases you previously posted, your prior mailman was in /var/lib/mailman. Do you now have two Mailman installations, one in /var/lib/mailman with lists and appropriate sendmail aliases and one in /usr/local/mailman with no lists and no sendmail aliases? No. In the moment I just have one mailman installation (installed by source) in /usr/local/mailman. I not even have sendmail in the moment. By now I would like to get shure that all with my mailman-installation so far is correct. If I run /bin/check_perms it looks very good. What do you mean your Mailman doesn't run? Please be more specific. If I run /bin/mailmanctl start I get missing the mailinglist mailman, surely because I have not installed sendmail and done entries in the /etc/aliases. This will be next step. Thank you very much again, Kai -- GMX FreeMail: 1 GB Postfach, 5 E-Mail-Adressen, 10 Free SMS.

[Mailman-Users] Newbie Question: Can`t send mails to my list
Dear list, since a couple of hours I try to get to run an own mailinglist. I did the following steps: - I installed as root on my Debian 4.0 mailman with apt-get install mailman - I ran: /usr/lib/mailman/bin/check_perms and changed permissions at the errors that occured. Meanwhile there is no error anymore. - I adapted the pathes at the mm_cfg.py-Script and I wrote the -I hope -correct entries in the httpd.conf of Apache If I run: http://lists.gforge.geoplp.de/mailman/admin I come to the administration-area. As an administrator I can create new mailinglists (e.g. the list testa and get a confirmation mail of that. I can register users at the list that get as well a confirmation. But then comes the problem: As a user I want to write a mail to that list. But that mail never reaches the mailinglist members. After a couple of seconds I get a mail-delivery message from my client: This message was created automatically by mail delivery software. A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed: [EMAIL PROTECTED] retry timeout exceeded What am I doing wrong? Please help!

Re: [Mailman-Users] Newbie Question: Can`t send mails to my list
Hi Dennis, I think you'll find that list.gforge.geoplp.de does not exist but gforge.geoplp.de does exist and accepts mail. At any rate I sent a test email to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] and it was not returned. Hope this helps, Dennis unfortunately I get also in this case a Mail delivery failed. Nevertheless thank you :-) In the moment I check out the points at FAQ troubleshooting. It might has something to do with the configuration of sendmail.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Newbie Question: Can`t send mails to my list
Hello Mark,
This is definitely an MTA (sendmail) and/or DNS issue.
Have you installed the Mailman aliases for your list(s).
Have you looked in sendmail's maillog to see what it's trying to do?
Thank you for answering. For me as a mailman/sendmail newbie this is really not
easy.
Well, the Mailman aliases I had already inserted in /etc/mail/aliases
like that:
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

If I look at the sendmail-log is says at /var/log/mail.log (I think this is the
right logfile?):

What could that mean?
You wrote it could be a DNS-problem?
What do you mean with that?
Do I need a DNS-Server to use mailman/sendmail?
Thank you very much!!

Re: [Mailman-Users] Newbie Question: Can`t send mails to my list
Hello Mark, These are only for the mailman list. You need another set of 10 like complicate: |/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post complicate complicate-admin:|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin complicate etc. for the 'complicate' list and simarly for all other mailman lists. Then you need to run the newaliases command to update the actual sendmail database after you add the aliases to /etc/mail/aliases. This may fix the entire problem, Thanks again. I checked that out with a new mailinglist and made the required entires but again I got after 2 or three seconds a Mail-Delivery-Failure. I wonder: Is there a way that these entries are made automatically in the aliases or is it the common way to make them manually? I think I need to do some more tests here that night and tomorrow. I really want mailman to get to run, but it might be still a long way. Again, thank you very much, Kai -- GMX FreeMail: 1 GB Postfach, 5 E-Mail-Adressen, 10 Free SMS.

Re: [Mailman-Users] Newbie Question: Can`t send mails to my list
Hello everybody, I think I will try a complete new installation of mailman and sendmail to have fresh systems. Are there reasons against compiling with apt-get install mailman/sendmail ? Would it be better to try with downloading source-code /configure /make /make install ? Thanky, Kai -- Ist Ihr Browser Vista-kompatibel?
