[Mailman-Users] Sending emails via Mailman Issue

[Saxvik, Ben]

Hi Patrick,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes the MTA is running on the mailman machine.

No I have not changed the options SMTPHOST and SMTPPORT, they are still
set to their default settings. SMTPHOST 'localhost' SMTPPORT '0'.

Regards,

Ben

Have you overriden the 'SMTPHOST' or 'SMTPPORT' options in mm_cfg.py?
Alternatively, have you changed one of them in Defaults.py? (The latter
would be a bad thing).

The default SMTPHOST is 'localhost', and the port is 0, which means the
default. If you aren't running an MTA on the machine running Mailman
(from what I understand, you are?), you'll need to change them. If
you've changed them to something else, that may be the problem.
