I followed INSTALL to install mailman-1.0rc3, all went well but when I was trying to subscribe to test-list, I got following,

In my logs/smtp-failures: Jul 14 00:42:01 1999 TrySMTPDelivery: To zhaoway@xteamlinux.com.cn: Jul 14 00:42:01 1999 TrySMTPDelivery: socket.error / host not found (deferred) Jul 14 00:42:01 1999 TrySMTPDelivery: Maybe your MTA daemon needs restarting?

pls help! I've checked mailman-users archive, didn't get any clue on solving this.

P.S. I've been successful on intalling 1.0rc2 on my local test machines, I don't see there were much difference on my side during these 2 install.

Any clarification will be greatfully appreciated!
