When a subscriber posts to the list /var/log/exim4/mainlog says: 2006-09-01 13:37:27 H=mailout09.sul.t-online.com [194.25.134.84] F=<k.oliver@t-online.de> rejected RCPT <news@server.windfinder.com>: relay not permitted

Any idea how to allow postings from subscribers? Thanks.

It sounds to me like you don't have +MAILMAN_DOMAINS in any accept statements in your rcpt acl. I would just add it to one of the verify = recipient stanzas towards the end of the rcpt acl (given a stock configuration).

Hello Stephen, thanks for for reply. I added +MAILMAN_DOMAINS whereever I thought it might help. I am still getting the same error: relay not permitted.
