Jon,
I have created a list and received the notification of it. I added the
list to the aliases file and sent messages to it.
maillog show the messages being passed to Mailman. The messages get as far
as the mail directory and do not get to the qfiles directories.
At this point there is one file in the mail directory titled "mailman post
test" and it contains the several messages I have sent to the list. There
are no files in any of the qfiles directories.
Additional information: There is also a "mailman bounces test" and a
"mailman post fp" file in the mail directory. There is also a "mailman"
file there.
According to your comment, the mailman post (and bounces) app is not
working. What do I do to fix it?
Thanks,
David
