Hi,

sending a mail to my newly created mailing list I get the following error message from my mailer-demon:

|------------------------- Failed addresses follow: ---------------------| "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd empiria-rpg" ... failed: transport pipe: +child returned status EX_1 (1) |------------------------- Message text follows: ------------------------|

Anybody knows what this means?

I means that the pipe exited with a non-zero status, in this case 1.

I suspect that your MTA isn't running the wrapper under the correct user -- here is my Exim setup, note the "user = mailman" in the transport:

###################################################################### # TRANPORTS CONFIGURATION # ######################################################################

mailman_list_pipe: driver = pipe allow_commands = /local/Mailman/mail/wrapper user = mailman return_output

###################################################################### # DIRECTORS CONFIGURATION # ######################################################################

local_lists: driver = aliasfile search_type = lsearch file = /local/Mailman/data/MTA_aliases pipe_transport = mailman_list_pipe
