[Mailman-Developers] FW: [Mailman-Users] can't resolve "smrsh: mailman not available for sendmail programs" issue

[Keith Steward]

Danny,

I had it that way (i.e. "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post test1" in
the /etc/aliases) before, and then tried the "|/etc/smrsh/mailman post
test1", as indicated in the Mailman INSTALL doc.  Both gave the "smrsh:
mailman not available for sendmail" error.

thanks

 
Keith

|Arghhhh!!!

|After several attempts to get Mailman installed (including stable 2.0
final, and newest 2.1rc1), and hitting unresolvable "smrsh: |mailman not
available for sendmail programs" issues (despite trying numerous
things), i'm just about ready to give up.


|The /etc/aliases includes:
|## test1 mailing list
|test1:              "|/etc/smrsh/mailman post test1"
|test1-admin:        "|/etc/smrsh/mailman admin test1"
|test1-bounces:      "|/etc/smrsh/mailman bounces test1"
|test1-confirm:      "|/etc/smrsh/mailman confirm test1"
|test1-join:         "|/etc/smrsh/mailman join test1"
|test1-leave:        "|/etc/smrsh/mailman leave test1"
|test1-owner:        "|/etc/smrsh/mailman owner test1"
|test1-request:      "|/etc/smrsh/mailman request test1"
|test1-subscribe:    "|/etc/smrsh/mailman subscribe test1"
|test1-unsubscribe:  "|/etc/smrsh/mailman unsubscribe test1"

Keith, this above is not good!!!!
Must be like :

## poema-test mailing list mailman2.1
poema-test:              "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman post
poema-test"
poema-test-admin:        "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman admin
poema-test"
poema-test-bounces:      "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman bounces
poema-test"
poema-test-confirm:      "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman confirm
poema-test"
poema-test-join:         "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman join
poema-test"
poema-test-leave:        "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman leave
poema-test"
poema-test-owner:        "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman owner
poema-test"
poema-test-request:      "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman request
poema-test"
poema-test-subscribe:    "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe
poema-test"
poema-test-unsubscribe:  "|/usr/local/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe
poema-test"
