The log you posted previously seems to say the MTA delivering to Mailman is 'middleman'. I don't know anything at all about this MTA. Another hint in a prior post tells me it may have some programatic way (rather than aliases) for determining whether and how a post should be delivered to Mailman. How does this work and what does it look at?
I hop into this thread as this is of interest to me, too.
Middleman is a channel daemon for Sun Java System Messaging Server (you may know it as iPlanet Messaging Server or PMDF). I wrote middleman to integrate Mailman with SJSMS as there was now thorough solution available. It's still a work in progress, but works for us at the University of Turku.
Now, there was a bug in middleman and I've asked Rolf to send me some debugging info to find where the problem is. Until then there's nothing to do but speculate. But I doubt the problem is in Mailman, although Rolf's description of the problem seems very odd, I must say.
If anyone is interested in the integration, you may ask me off list if you wish.
