[Mailman-Users] install woes, please guide

[Mark Johnson]

hi i am strugling in getting mailman to work. i am running it on a slackware 8.0 system with exim 3.34.

the install seemed to go fine, there was a strange message when i setup the test list, something about "getpass may echo passwords" apart from that its all goo. i can see the list web pages fine etc.

but, when i try to send mails to the list i get the following:

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software (Exim).

"A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

  mark1 at port7.co.uk
    Child process of list_transport transport returned 2 from command:
    /home/mailman/mail/wrapper"

i have checked the FAQ several times and see no inspiration there. can someone point me in the right direction? i have had mailman working a few months back on another sytem and that was great.
