[Mailman-Users] virtual domain

[Vania Lolham]

Hi there,

OS: RedHat 7.1

I setup all domains as virtual and all the users are popuser.

Server domain name is resolved to "maindomain.com" with ip address of 139.aaa.bbb.ccc
there are two other virtual domains under this domain called:
virtual-domain-1.com with ip address of 203.aaa.bbb.ccc
virtual-domain-2.com with ip address of 203.eee.fff.ggg

alias file for the main domain is in /etc/aliases
alias file for the virtual domains are in:
/etc/vmail/virtual-domain-1.com/aliases.virtual-domain-1.com
/etc/vmail/virtual-domain-2.com/aliases.virtual-domain-2.com

Remember there are no real users here only root and now mailman.

****action****
I installed mailman 2.0.1-2.rpm

By default mailman is installed in /var/mailman
mailman user is created: mailman uid and gid both are 41
and alias file in /etc/aliases  is updated as follwed:
mailman: postmaster
mailman-owner: mailman

ok, here I start to create a list:
I edit mm_cfg to add my default domain name and URL, I type this:
changed DEFAULT_HOST_NAME= ' virtual-domain-1.com'
changed DEFAULT_URL= ' http://www.virtual-domain-1.com/mailman/'
I left the rest as is and done the web setting for httpd.conf

I want to use one of the virtual-domains, not the main server domain.
next step I create a list:
/var/mailman/bin/newlist
call the list "test"
then the name for the admin: me at virtual-domain-1.com
asked me for a pass word "test"

the final message is:

test:                "|/var/mailman/mail/wrapper post test"
test-admin:      "|/var/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner test" 
test-request:    "|/var/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd test"
test-owner:      test-admin
-------------------------------
By reading the installation file I assume I have to add these 4 lines in /etc/aliases file
I did and run newaliases to update the alias file.

***now test***
I add a user to the list call it "test-user at test_domain.com; no problem
The usere recived a notification and was accepted,
*** problem here***
If that test-user send a posting to test at virtual-domain-1.com the message get posted no error or bounce.
mail log say the mail was send:ok
But the user doesn't get the posted message.
no matter how many valid users I add to the list the don't get postings.

** alternatives **
I add the previous 4 lines to the virtual-doman-1.com alias file to see where the problem is.
Still no error and mail get send to the list, but still no posting coming back to the users.
I check for problems in /var/mailman/logs
no errors, and smtp and post say the message was accepted.

Where these posting are getting stored? I don't see them anywhere!!

Any clues?
-------------
Regards,

Vania
