Hi Mark,

Thanks for the reply.

I have re-verified all the steps listed at:

http://www.exim.org/howto/mailman21.html

The main, router and transport configuration on my machine is exactly as
per the documentation. Yet I get the same error message in my rejectlog.
viz.

2007-11-22 10:21:41 H=(mail.domain.tld) [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] F=<kapil at domain.tld> rejected RCPT <listname at list.domain.tld>: Unrouteable address

Is there something which I should add to the /etc/aliases file to make the lists work? Please help, I have been pulling my hair out trying to figure this :(

Thanks a lot >:D<

- Kapil
