Relaying Denied Messages with Mailman and Sendmail
We've been running mailman v2.0 for quite a while here without problems, but the only list served has been one comprised of local users. I have a user now who wants a list for subscribers from other than the local system, and have discovered that we're having a problem with relaying denied messages from sendmail on mailman's outgoing mail. I'm the first to admit that I don't know as much about sendmail as I should, considering that I run it here, but I think (or at least thought) that I had everything set up the way it was supposed to be. Could I possibly get some tips from those of you who have had similar experiences or who just know about such things with regard to what I should be doing or looking for in this regard?
Thanks very much in advance for any help.

well I don't think many people know everything about sendmail... so don't feel too bad about it ;)
You have to allow relaying of mail to the outside world from the localhost (which is what mailman is trying to do).
See for more information http://www.sendmail.org/faq/section3.html#3.27 or http://www.sendmail.org/tips/relaying.html
