The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Mikael Nehlsen <address@concealed>]

Hi,

Thank you for the reply I haven't tried the majordomo import script yet.

On my first question I tried to do as you said but then I get a mail
back to the sender with:


Impossible to distribute your message for list '' for the following reason :

List 'y' does not exist.
For further information, please contact -request@



The list in this case is called y. I still have list.domain1.com for the
transport in master.cf like:

sympa     unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe
        flags=R user=sympa argv=/var/sympa/bin/queue ${recipient}
sympabounce unix  -     n       n       -       -       pipe -v
        flags=R user=sympa argv=/var/sympa/bin/bouncequeue ${user}

and have list.domain1.com in the mydestination and relay_domains
parameters in main.cf of postfix. My transport regexps lok like:

/^.*+owner\@list\.domain1\.com$/     sympabounce:
/^.*\@list\.domain1\.com$/           sympa:


and my virtual regexps look like:

/^(.*)-owner\@list\.domain1\.com$/    $address@concealed

and the aliases in are in ldap but corresponds to the aliases:

address@concealed:          address@concealed
address@concealed:      address@concealed
address@concealed:       address@concealed
address@concealed:        address@concealed
address@concealed:    address@concealed
address@concealed:  address@concealed


Thank you for your help.
