I have a problem configuring mailman 2.1.18 with qmail on Debian .
Short version : The package is installed, users could subscribe to the list, unsubscribe ... everything work fine, but it always fail to send an email to all members.
Long version : The package is installed, users could subscribe to the list, unsubscribe ... everything work fine. Once I access to the email of the list's administartor and try to send an email to all members, it always fail. This is what I have in the log

While I create a list from the command line
ipb-srv41:/var/qmail# newlist list1 Enter the email of the person running the list: administrator@domain41.com Initial list1 password: To finish creating your mailing list, you must edit your /etc/aliases (or equivalent) file by adding the following lines, and possibly running the `newaliases' program:
## list1 mailing list list1: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post list1" list1-admin: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin list1" list1-bounces: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces list1" list1-confirm: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm list1" list1-join: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join list1" list1-leave: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave list1" list1-owner: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner list1" list1-request: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request list1" list1-subscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe list1" list1-unsubscribe: "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe list1"

My questions are the following: 1- where those alias are stored ? 2- is there an addional config to do with qmail ? 3- why the user receive email to subscribe/unsubscribe , but the admin couldn't sedn email to the list ?
See if this helps you:
http://wiki.qmailtoaster.com/index.php/Mailman
But probably a question better asked on a Qmail related mailing list like:
Qmailtoaster-list@qmailtoaster.com

Those aliases are generic for sendmail and postfix. Qmail is different. See http://www.list.org/mailman-install/qmail-issues.html for some information about mail delivery from Qmail to Mailman.
Also note if you are installing the Debian Mailman package with Qmail as the MTA, this should somehow be covered in Debian's documentation and if it isn't that's a Debian bug. See http://wiki.list.org/x/12812344.
As to your third question, Mailman has no problem delivering outgoing mail to Qmail via SMTP to port 25 on localhost, but Qmail doesn't know how to deliver incoming list mail to Mailman. The info at http://www.list.org/mailman-install/qmail-issues.html should help with that.

I am reminded by Fabian Santiago's reply that there is also a qmail-to-mailman.py script. In a source install, the base script is in contrib/qmail-to-mailman.py and a 'configured' script is in build/contrib/qmail-to-mailman.py
I don't know what the situation is in the Debian package, but given Debian's proclivity towards postfix-to-mailman.py (not distributed by the GNU Mailman project), they may well have a way to set this up for Qmail.
hello,
So after some changes , I got another error :/

See the FAQ at http://wiki.list.org/x/4030645
If you still have issues, please post how you installed Mailman (source or Debian package) and if you installed from package, be sure you have read /usr/share/doc/mailman/README.Debian and everything else in the package related to qmail.

There's an excellent program in Mailman's contrib folder in the source called qmail-to-mailman.py which eliminates the need for specific aliases as you have listed. It's been years since I used qmail but as I recall, qmail has the ability to process a mail to a list through a configurable program. I adapted qmail-to-mailman.py to create courier-to-mailman (also in contrib) for the courier MTA, which is similar to qmail in some regards, and it works perfectly.
Those aliases are generic for sendmail and postfix. Qmail is different. See http://www.list.org/mailman-install/qmail-issues.html for some information about mail delivery from Qmail to Mailman.
Also note if you are installing the Debian Mailman package with Qmail as the MTA, this should somehow be covered in Debian's documentation and if it isn't that's a Debian bug. See http://wiki.list.org/x/12812344.
