Hi, I'm having trouble getting mailman 2.0 to work properly with postfix on a solaris machine. The web interface works, and it mails out a welcome message when I add users to the list but when I post to the list the messages just disappear. I added the aliases as instructed and I can see in the mail logs that the message is being delivered to the "wrapper post test" command with no error messages. I don't get any error messages in $prefix/mailman/logs either. I ran configure with the following options:
./configure --with-username=mailman --prefix=/var/mailman --with-cgi-gid=http --with-mail-gid=mailman
Also I put the aliases for the list in a separate file the way it says to do if you're using postfix in the troubleshooting section of the INSTALL file.
I don't really understand what mail-gid is for. Does it mean the gid it expects the wrapper program to be run with from postfix? After I moved the aliases for the test list to a separate file and changed the owenership to mailman.mailman postfix seemed to run the command with gid mailman which should be ok...
Could somebody please give me some suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks.
