I have reviewed several of the previous posting on this problem but do
not find a resolution. I have been using Mailman version 2.1.9 for about
3 months. A few days ago, mail delivered to all mailing list began to
bounce. I have not made any changes but I believe the mailman user id
was altered by the system administrator to add a password was added. I
have updated the mailman user to not require a password. I have ran
check_perms and found a few errors which were corrected. I have checked
the etc/aliases file and all entries appear to be fine. The aliases
file does not appear to have changed. See below example of entry:
# mailman aliases
mailman: "|/u001/mailman/mail/mailman post mailman"
mailman-admin: "|/u001/mailman/mail/mailman admin mailman"
mailman-bounces: "|/u001/mailman/mail/mailman bounces mailman"
mailman-confirm: "|/u001/mailman/mail/mailman confirm mailman"
mailman-join: "|/u001/mailman/mail/mailman join mailman"
mailman-leave: "|/u001/mailman/mail/mailman leave mailman"
mailman-owner: "|/u001/mailman/mail/mailman owner mailman"
mailman-request: "|/u001/mailman/mail/mailman request mailman"
mailman-subscribe: "|/u001/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe mailman"
mailman-unsubscribe:"|/u001/mailman/mail/mailman unsunscribe mailman"
I then restarted sendmail and mailman but I am still receiving the below
errors.
Error messages in /var/log/mailman/error file:
Jun 05 08:35:02 2008 post(15152): post script, list not found: mailman
I have checked the mailman lists folder and it contains the following
files
-rwxrwxrwx 1 mailman mailman 238 Apr 16 06:36 request.pck
-rw-rw---- 1 mailman mailman 3772 Jun 5 08:00 config.pck.last
-rw-rw---- 1 mailman mailman 3772 Jun 5 09:00 config.pck
I am able to subscribe to the lists via the web and receive the
confirmation email but I am not able to send any email to the mailing
lists. I received an undelivered message. Sendmail on the server is
working fine, if I send a mail directly to a unix user it is received.
Could you please let me know what could have gone wrong? Any help would
be deeply appreciated.
Thanks,
Theona Williams
