Hi all,<br>
<br>
I need to setup a mailing list for a discussion group by this Firday, but
now I'm facing a big problem (Maybe just a minor one for you guys), but it
definately get me confused! I wish someone can kindly give me advice to fix
this problem. I really need a hand!!<br>
<br>
I'm running Mailman 2.0.9 on Mandrake 8.1, using Postfix-20010228-pl03 as
the MTA. I can send and receive email with the accounts on this machine porperly,
so I assumed that both the Mandrake Linux and Postfix on my machine were
well configured.<br>
<br>
When I create a list called "test3" with the "newlist" command in the terminal,
the message shown seems no problem at all.<br>
<br>
## test3 mailing list<br>
## created 19-April-2002 apollo<br>
test3: "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post test3"<br>
test3-admin: "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner test3"<br>
test3-request: "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd test3"<br>
test3-owner: test3-admin<br>
<br>
I do receive an email to notify me a new list "test3" has been created. When
I add some email address to this list with the web interface, it works great!
Then all those email accounts receive a welcome email with this message "...To
post to this list, send your email to: <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:test3@warman.no-ip.com">test3@warman.no-ip.com</a>".<br>
Here the problem comes! When I try to post message with this given email
address <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:test3@warman.no-ip.com">"test3@warman.no-ip.com"</a>, I will soonly get an undelivered mail by
the Mailer-Deamon on my Linux machine, the message looks like this:<br>
<br>
<div class="moz-text-plain" wrap="true" graphical-quote="true" style="font-family: courier; font-size: 12px; ">
<pre wrap="">This is the Postfix program at host warman.no-ip.com.

<br>

<br>
Surely I don't have a user called "test3" on my machine, isn't that the Mailman
should take the job to handling this?! What's wrong? Should I add any aliases
somewhere in the Mailman, and turn it back to work??<br>
<br>
Best Regards,<br>
