Hmm... this is a cPanel system, and the entire contents of /etc/
aliases is:
mailman-admin: "|/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/mail/mailman
admin mailman"
mailman-bounces: "|/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/mail/mailman
bounces mailman"
mailman-confirm: "|/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/mail/mailman
confirm mailman"
mailman-join: "|/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/mail/mailman join
mailman"
mailman-leave: "|/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/mail/mailman
leave mailman"
mailman-owner: "|/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/mail/mailman
owner mailman"
mailman-request: "|/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/mail/mailman
request mailman"
mailman-subscribe: "|/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/mail/mailman
subscribe mailman"
mailman-unsubscribe: "|/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman/mail/
mailman unsubscribe mailman"
mailman: /dev/null
mailman-loopback: /dev/null
owner-mailman: mailman-admin
In other words, no references to specific lists, or to -leave for any
specific list, are in that file. Maybe cPanel keeps a separate
aliases file somewhere, but I couldn't locate it if it does. Any
cPanel experts have a clue where the equivalent file is?
Thanks,
Scot
