[Mailman-Users] Don`t get my mailinglist to run (mailman & postfix)

[Kai Behncke]

Hi Stefan,

thank you very much for answering.

In the logfile of mailman/log/smtp it`s written:

May 16 19:30:01 2008 (3226) <mailman.0.1210959000.3584.big_test at igf-srv-gin.igf.uni-osnabrueck.de> smtp to big_test for 1 recips, completed in 0.027 seconds
May 16 19:33:55 2008 (3226) <mailman.0.1210959233.3683.big_test at igf-srv-gin.igf.uni-osnabrueck.de> smtp to big_test for 1 recips, completed in 0.030 seconds
May 16 19:34:27 2008 (3226) <mailman.0.1210959266.3699.big_test at igf-srv-gin.igf.uni-osnabrueck.de> smtp to big_test for 1 recips, completed in 0.005 seconds

...I think that are logs after subscribing to the list.


I don`t understand that, because I sent out mail to big_test at igf-srv-gin.igf.uni-osnabrueck.de at 19:45  and 20:00, but there are no entries in the logs.
Also in the log-file of postfix there are mo entries at that time.

But there are entries like:
May 16 19:34:27 igf-srv-gin postfix/smtpd[3684]: connect from localhost[127.0.0.1]
May 16 19:34:27 igf-srv-gin postfix/smtpd[3684]: 1EB28F96F: client=localhost[127.0.0.1]
May 16 19:34:27 igf-srv-gin postfix/cleanup[3687]: 1EB28F96F: message-id=<mailman.0.1210959266.3699.big_test at igf-srv-gin.igf.uni-osnabrueck.de>
May 16 19:34:27 igf-srv-gin postfix/qmgr[1279]: 1EB28F96F: from=<big_test-bounces at igf-srv-gin.igf.uni-osnabrueck.de>, size=2201, nrcpt=1 (queue active)
May 16 19:34:27 igf-srv-gin postfix/smtpd[3684]: disconnect from localhost[127.0.0.1]
May 16 19:34:27 igf-srv-gin postfix/smtp[3688]: 1EB28F96F: to=<Kai-Behncke at gmx.de>, relay=mx0.gmx.net[213.165.64.100]:25, delay=0.51, delays=0/0/0.34/0.17, dsn=2.6.0, status=sent (250 2.6.0 Message accepted {mx011})
May 16 19:34:27 igf-srv-gin postfix/qmgr[1279]: 1EB28F96F: removed

...thesee entires came also after I registered to my own list.


That`s weird. It looks like there is no connection to posfix if I sent as a member of the list a mail to big_test at igf-srv-gin.igf.uni-osnabrueck.de.

Do you have any idea what can cause that?


Seems as if it will be a long night for me.
Thank you again, Kai
