Problem w/ subscribing on Debian 2.0 system
I am running Debian 2.0, using smail release 3_2_0_101. I have set up a mailing list LOTOC and can run admin functions just fine. When I attempt to subscribe to the list in order to test it, I get the initial mailing requesting confirmation before my subscription is entered. I return that email to confirm, and receive the following error sent to postmaster:
|------------------------- Failed addresses follow: --------------------- | "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd lotoc" ... failed: transport pipe: child returned status EX_1 (1) |------------------------- Message text follows: ------------------------
(etc etc)
I have seen something like this addressed once before in the archives but for a different system configuration. The solution there was to alter the EXIM director and transport files. Can anyone explain how I would do this for a Debian/smail based system?
Thanks!

do you have cofigure mailman with --mail-gid nogroup --cgi-gid www-data? what do you have into /var/log/smail/logfile about this request?

modify /etc/smail/directors with: # mailman aliases - search for alias expansions stored in a database mailman: driver=aliasfile, -nobody, sender_okay, owner=postmaster; file=/home/mailman/aliases, owngroups=mailman, modemask=002, proto=lsearch, David.
