I think I have narrowed down the problem to the list-request@server.com alias not working. I copied and pasted the aliases into the /etc/aliases/ file and run newaliases. There should not be anything else needed right? Here are the aliases

techtrial: "|/var/mailman/mail/wrapper post techtrial" techtrial-admin: "|/var/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner techtrial" techtrial-request: "|/var/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd techtrial" techtrial-owner: techtrial-admin

If someone subscribes via the web interface they don't show up in the user list. If I add them via the administrative web interface they do show up. Any reason why these two act differently I have not blocked anyone from subscribing and no approval is needed? Also, and I think because of this the users were not getting the email that was sent to the list, but were getting the messages via the news reader via INN. Can anyone explain why this happens?

Thanks, Adam
