RE: [Mailman-Users] Not sending mail FIXED

The server isn't creating the list alias correctly. When I try to subscribe, the confirmation message bounces back to me. Ugh.

I finally determined where to fix my problem. As you might remember, I was having trouble with a basic installation of Mailman on my Redhat Linux 7.1 box.
While sendmail was working on it's own.... Mailman was not sending mail through that particular MTA. After creating a new group, it wasn't sending a confirmation email to the list owner (me).
The fix: I added this line to my mm_cfg.py file: DELIVERY_MODULE = 'Sendmail'
It defaults to: DELIVERY_MODULE = 'SMTPDirect'
There is also a warning concerning the use of the Sendmail module. I'd rather use the default config, but, I can't get it to work correctly.
Does this lead some of you to a possible reason why SMTPDirect might not work? I have no clue. Seems like it's checking for something and not getting what it needs....
