[Mailman-Users] Mailman don't send subscription confirmation email

[Support]

Ive been having trouble with that also, among other things.

when you create a list via $prefix/bin/newlist

it runs you thru a little questionaire.  what is the list's name, who is the
admin?....

it then tells you to add this the your /etc/aliases file.

###---------- Mailman List Aliases

## test mailing list
## Created: 18-Jul-2002 mailman
test:                   "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper post test"
test-admin:             "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner test"
test-request:           "|/home/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd test"
test-owner:             test-admin


make sure you have this, and you have a symlink in
/etc/smrsh/wrapper -> $prefix/mail/wrapper (this hint is in the docs
somewhere)
you can add the wrapper with this command

shell> ln -s $prefix/mail/wrapper wrapper


---My problem is I get the confirmation message. I reply to it but don't get
added to the list????

anyone know why.

thanx

email


Hi...

I been install Mailman 2.0.11-1 downloaded from RedHat
rpm's database, on a RedHat 7.1 server with sendmail
and iPop3 (Imap), I made test sending and reciving
mails trought shell's users and it works, but when I
tried to subscribe to Mailman list, the server doesn't
send me any mail for confirmation.

I tried make it work, changing the aliases but even it
doesn't work.

I have my /etc/aliases like this.

mailman: postmaster
mailman-owner: mailman

Is this right? or I need to make some changes...

thanks
