[Mailman-Users] Problems installing Mailman 2.1b3

As a guess, I would say that you have a routing problem with your MTA
(postfix). You might need to setup Postfix so that it allows relaying
from 127.0.0.1 (localhost).

As to the footer, try sending a text message to the list and see if the
footer is included then.  I'm guessing again, but you are probably
sending HTML email to the list, and the email is constructed so that it
stops displaying before the footer text.

Hope this helps - Jon Carnes
