if mailout01.sul.t-online.com is your smarthost, then that box doesn't like to relay for you. Please note that T-Online has a rather severe daily mail volume limit and thus you won't have much fun with running a mailing list server via the T-Online mail servers.

Additional to that, please make sure to read the documentation that came with your Debian package. May I ask how you managed to miss the pointers to the Debian specific mailing list and where you found the pointer to exim-users?

Greetings Marc Sorry, I forgot to say that I actually read /usr/share/doc/mailman/README.EXIM and changed my config. Still could not fix the problem:

This is my actual configuration: /etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py: [..] # Default domain for email addresses of newly created MLs DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'server.windfinder.com' [..]

/etc/exim4/exim4.conf.template (accepted after exim4 restart): # Home dir for your Mailman installation -- aka Mailman's prefix # directory. MAILMAN_HOME=/var/lib/mailman MAILMAN_WRAP=MAILMAN_HOME/mail/mailman

# User and group for Mailman, should match your --with-mail-gid # switch to Mailman's configure script. MAILMAN_USER=list MAILMAN_GROUP=daemon

[..] begin routers

mailman_router: driver = accept require_files = MAILMAN_HOME/lists/$local_part/config.pck local_part_suffix_optional local_part_suffix = -bounces : -bounces+* :
-confirm+* : -join : -leave :
-owner : -request : -admin transport = mailman_transport

[..] begin transports

mailman_transport: driver = pipe command = MAILMAN_WRAP
'${if def:local_part_suffix
{${sg{$local_part_suffix}{-(\\w+)(\\+.*)?}{\$1}}}
{post}}'
$local_part current_directory = MAILMAN_HOME home_directory = MAILMAN_HOME user = MAILMAN_USER group = MAILMAN_GROUP [..]

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.

Oliver
