[Mailman-Users] Confirmation and sent messages not reaching end-user

[Jason Luck]

- Mailman 2.1.7
- RPM
- Redhat Fedora Linux version 2.6.15-1.2054_FC5
- Sendmail

Question: I'm setting up a Mailman system and have hit a roadblock that 
looks to deal with sending and receiving messages.

What I know: I've looked through the FAQ and specfically FAQ 3.14, and am 
able to get a number of the items requested, but don't know enough to be 
able to decipher what the outputs are saying.

I can seemingly create lists...both at the command prompt using newlist 
and through the web-interface, but do not receive any confirmation emails 
once those lists are created.  Additionally, I subscribed to one of the 
lists and tried to send a message to the list and did not receive the 
message.  Also, the archives do not show the message.

I've listed below a few of the responses from the outputs of the FAQ and 
can provide additional log file info if it will be helpful.

Thanks.

3) yes uses smrsh, 

grep "smrsh" sendmail.cf

output:
#####  $Id: smrsh.m4,v 8.14 1999/11/18 05:06:23 ca Exp $  #####
Mprog,          P=/usr/sbin/smrsh, F=lsDFMoqeu9, S=EnvFromL/HdrFromL, 
R=EnvToL/HdrToL, D=$z:/,
                A=smrsh -c $u

ls -l smrsh

output:
total 4lrwxrwxrwx 1 root mailman 29 Sep 16 05:18 mailman -> 
/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman

4) Interface
grep "Port" sendmail.cf
O DaemonPortOptions=Port=smtp,Addr=127.0.0.1, Name=MTA
#O ClientPortOptions=Family=inet, Address=0.0.0.0

netstat -na |grep ":25 "

output:
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:25                0.0.0.0:*                   
LISTEN      

a bit shady here...

/etc/hosts has nothing in it.

SMTPHOST...in mm_cfg.py...no info on
 DELIVERY_MODULE = 'SMTPDirect'
     MTA = 'Manual'
     SMTPHOST = 'localhost'
     SMTPPORT = 0               # default from smtplib
     SENDMAIL_CMD = '/usr/lib/sendmail'

5) qrunner is running

6) Locks

Can't find any locks folder under a mailman directory
