The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Jason Ede <address@concealed>]

 

Here is your problem. I'm not terribly familiar with sendmail, but it looks like sendmail is unable to access the sympa home directory.

 

Sep 25 17:10:23 listserve smrsh: uid 8: attempt to use "queue address@concealed" (stat failed)
Sep 25 17:10:23 listserve sendmail[2653]: l8PLANvd002652: to="| /home/sympa/bin/queue address@concealed", ctladdr=<address@concealed> (8/0), delay=00:00:00, xdelay=00:00:00, mailer=prog, pri=31399, dsn=5.0.0, stat=Service unavailable
Sep 25 17:10:23 listserve sendmail[2653]: l8PLANvd002652: l8PLANvd002653: DSN: Service unavailable

 

I had a similar problem with postfix, and needed to change the rights on the sympa home directory so that other processes could use it...  If its just sympa running on the box and no other users then could do chmod 655 /home/sympa but if you've other users on the machine then try making the sendmail user a member of the sympa group.

My list server runs on FC7 and works fine. What MTA are you using postfix? sendmail? exim?

 

Can you paste some of the logs (/var/log/maillog) just after you send an email to the list?

I have recently set up a sympa listserve box on fedora core 7.  I have only one problem.  I can sign up to the listserve and I get an email with my password.  I called my list address@concealed.  When I send a message to this email address sendmail accepts the message but it is never sent out to the subscribers.  It is never archived either.  What do I need to check?  Thanks in advance for any help that anyone can offer.
