Hi,
I've gotten most things to work with mailman-2.0.5 on Solaris 2.6 using postfix MTA. List creation, message submission, as well as the web interface to user additions, all seem to work fine.
But I can't get the email interface to work. For example, if I send 'Subject: help' message to test-request, I get back just a blank message, ~mailman/logs/error file stays empty, and I can find no hints in /var/logs/mail. Same thing with 'Subject: subscribe' messages to test-request.
How do I turn up the logging verbosity? I suppose I missed something in the INSTALL or FAQ, but danged if I can figure out what! Can anyone help point me in the right direction?
Thanks,
_Gary
---- here's what I get from my 'Subject: help' message to test-request and the pertinent lines from the /var/mail/log.

Essentially, you're going to do "printf" debugging. I.e. stick in some "printf"'s and figure out where things are going wrong.
The way to spell "printf" for Mailman is
# at the top of the file, if it's not already there from Mailman.Logging.Syslog import syslog
# where you want to stick the "printf" syslog('debug', 'we got to here')
You'll probably want to start with MailCommandHandler.py.
In a separate window, run "tail -f $prefix/log/debug" and then send your email command.
