Mailman has been working great for several months until I made a couple of changes on the server. I had been getting tons of mail errors because the hostname was actually an ALIAS according to DNS, so I changed the hostname to the CNAME and stopped getting the errors. Around that same time, I upgraded to RedHat 6.0. Somewhere along the line, I started getting this error everytime anyone tries to post to any of our lists:
----- The following addresses had permanent fatal errors -----
"|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post be-install" (expanded from: <be-install@techops.rfa.org>)
----- Transcript of session follows ----- sh: wrapper not available for sendmail programs 554 "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post be-install"... Service unavailable
Reading between the lines :), it appears that for some reason sendmail is no longer allowing wrappers. Any ideas?
The sendmail shipped with Redhat 6.0 has added security in that it doesn't allow you to execute any external software unless they are specified by smrsh. So, what you need to do is type in /etc/smrsh directory "ln -s /home/mailman/mail/wrapper" and everything should automagically be working as they used to be. :-)
