Problem with no bounce messages
Hi:
I use postfix as an MTA and on the same mailman 2. When mail is sent to a list that does not exist, the mail stays in the postfix queue in deferred state. Is there any configuration at the mailman or postfix level for that those emails that are passed to mailman to lists that do not exist be rejected immediately as when it is sent to an address that does not exist and that is handled locally by postfix?.
Thank you so much.
Example postfix:
local domains what are managed by postfix (@pepe.es, @manuel.es) If one email come to postfix to pepe@pepe.es and that mail doesn´t exist, you received a bounces message inform you from mailman.
I like to do the same thing for the domains of the lists (@listas.pepe.es @listas.manuel.es) If one email come to postfix to pepe@listas.pepe.es and that list doesn´t exist, the sender should receive a notice that this address does not exist.
Where do these messages go to lists that do not exist?.
Actually in mailman I have two domains of lists (@listas.prueba.es @listas.test.es)
If I send email to pepe@listas.prueba.es ( list address that does not exist), postfix transport it to mailman
(/etc/mailman/transport file) listas.prueba.es mailman: listas.test.es mailman:
I hope I am explaining myself well

It appears that you are using the unsupported and not recommended postfix_to_mailman.py to deliver to Mailman. See https://wiki.list.org/x/15564817 for more on that.
If you configure delivery to Mailman as described in the subsections at http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node12.html you won't have this issue.

Hi Mark:
I revised main.cf of postfix and have this:
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/mailman/virtual-mailman
alias_maps = hash:/etc/mailman/aliases
alias_database = hash:/etc/mailman/aliases.db
The file /etc/postfix/transport is not in use in postfix.
/etc/mailman/aliases

Do you still have an issue with this? If so, what?
