Subject: Re: Resend issues with sendmail
Did you "try" my aliases to see if a list called test would work?
- Yes, I did. It did not work.
Is it possible that in the file named /usr/local/majordomo/lists/sysmgt you
have a line containing :include: something? This would be very bad. The
file should contain ONE RFC822 email address per line.
- Yes. I have one email address per line, and no recursive include's.
Are you positive, that no directory in the path to your membership files is
group or world writable? This includes the / directory, /usr, /usr/local,
/usr/local/majordomo, and /usr/local/majordomo/lists.
- Yes, I am positive.
Before trying my aliases, ... assuming you are the root user; echo
'mick_ohrberg@your.domain.com' > /usr/local/majordomo/lists/test chown
majordomo.majordomo /usr/local/majordomo/lists/test
- It gives the same error message. Please ask for any logs you may want, or
let me know if you think it may actually be sendmail related (it seems like
sendmail refuses to expand recursive aliases?). Should I switch to postfix?
:P Thanks for your help!
