virtual domain and alias_maps
Hi I am having problems getting mail delivered to list members, on a virtual domain. This did not happen when a conventional ie non virtual, domain. Maybe there is a problem with aliases...I had to manually create the /usr/lib/mailman/data dir and both the 'alias' and 'virtual-mailman' files in that dir
(not sure of what contents should be in the described 'alias' and 'virtual-mailman' files)
But running genaliases does not create the expected .db files
ownership /permissions on those two files are apache:mailman and 664
In postfix I have: alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, hash:/usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual, hash:/usr/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman
and I have created the list and configured mm_cfg.py as specified
Thanks Michael

And what is in mm_cfg.py? Specifically do you have
MTA = 'Postfix'
and
POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS = ['the.lists.email.hostname']
See http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node12.html.

What output do you get after running it?
In postfix I have: alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases, hash:/usr/lib/mailman/data/aliases
Not required.
virtual_alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual, hash:/usr/lib/mailman/data/virtual-mailman
Yes.
and I have created the list and configured mm_cfg.py as specified
So you set MTA to Postfix and populated POSTFIX_STYLE_VIRTUAL_DOMAINS to your virtual domains?
Thanks. Andrew.
