I have a list that won't send out mail. I believe that all the settings are correct, but I could have missed something.
I am running Mailman 2.1.39 cPanel, and I have access to the command line.
I have a list that I needed to modify settings. It was established by a prior administrator, to whom I have no contact.
I can access admin UI, and modified everything. However, at the bottom of the Administrative page, where it says "list run by" the domain it shows is incorrect. It is a domain used for mail only on my installation.
The list comes up on my list of lists pages, but when I mail to it, it get permanent error list not found.
I hope this makes sense!

p.s. I don't know why or how, but I think the list isn't completely registered with the system. Also, I was able to establish a similar list, with different capitalization of name, the both show up on admin page, but not sure how to get rid of the bad one because it doesn't show up in the cPanel UI.

cPanel uses exim as its MTA. I don't know what the exim router for Mailman looks like in cPanel, but I suspect the issue has to do with that.
There is a general issue in that lists can be created through Mailman's command line but then cPanel doesn't know about them. Also, you should not be able to have two lists whose names differ only by case (unless in cPanel, they are in different domains). I suspect the one that doesn't show in cPanel was created by Mailman's /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/bin/newlist. You should be able to remove it with /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/bin/rmlist.
See https://wiki.list.org/DOC/Mailman%20and%20CPanel for more information, particularly the numbered items nearer the end.
