Hi Jordi, hi List, Thanks for your input and I am really happy about every input, but this also shows, why so mayn people have problems with mailman and struggling to get it up and running.
If you have followed the answers Bryan Petty (Tierra) has given, he told me to use-mail-gid= mailman and NOT vchkpw also I should not create a virtual domain, now you tell me I should. What should I believe now being a novice??? I'll sure give you way a try, even so I don't like the idea of having to run a script each time I add a list. This means an admin has to be involved each time a list is created. It's also another potential place for errors. Bryan, what do you say about this? I believe qmail/vpopmail is a pretty wide spreaded configuration by now and I don't understand why the creators of mailman can't just say, that's the way to go, fullstop!

One question I have a problem with the 2.1.5 version because it doesn't advise the list owner of bounces and e-mail adreses mailman deletes automatically, If you get any solution I would be very pleased if you send it to me. ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/
