Unable to send emails with mailman/postfix
Mailman version: 2.1.20 OS version (virtual): Ubuntu LTS 16.04.2
Hi,
I've set up a mailman client on a virtual server that I am able to connect to from the outside world. I see all of my mailing lists and have followed this document:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Mailman
when configuring. However, none of my test messages are being sent. I do not see anything in the mail logs and further, when I send a message using 'mail -s' it works perfectly. I eventually get a
"The recipient server did not accept our requests to connect"
receipt from Google. Any suggestions as to what to try next?
Thanks,

Why is Google involved? Is your virtual server hosted by Google?
If there is nothing at all relevant in /var/log/mail.log, Mailman is not connecting to Postfix on the virtual machine. What are the settings in mm_cfg.py if any or Defaults.py for SMTPHOST and SMTPPORT.
What is in Mailman's logs? Particularly 'smtp', 'smtp-failure' and 'error'?
Is Mailman even running?
