The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Simone Dal Maso <address@concealed>]

    Hi all,

I’ve been trying to integrate sympa in our mail server for a few days now, but without success. Our server is based on debian jessie and uses postfix and dovecot and most of the configuration (virtual users, virtual domains and aliases) is managed through a mysql database.
Postfix and dovecot talk to each other using lmtp.

I tried to follow various tutorials, but I’ve not managed to make postfix pass messages to sympa.
I am interested in a setup where messages are rejected as soon as possible, i.e. SMTP connection time.

In /etc/postfix/master.cf I’ve added the following:

sympalist        unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe

  flags=RF user=sympa argv=/usr/lib/sympa/bin/queue ${user}@${extension}

symparequest     unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe

  flags=RF user=sympa argv=/usr/lib/sympa/bin/queue ${user}-request@${extension}

sympaeditor      unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe

  flags=RF user=sympa argv=/usr/lib/sympa/bin/queue ${user}-editor@${extension}

sympasubscribe   unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe

  flags=RF user=sympa argv=/usr/lib/sympa/bin/queue ${user}-subscribe@${extension}

sympaunsubscribe unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe

  flags=RF user=sympa argv=/usr/lib/sympa/bin/queue ${user}-unsubscribe@${extension}

sympabounce      unix  -       n       n       -       -       pipe

  flags=RF user=sympa argv=/usr/lib/sympa/bin/bouncequeue ${user}@${extension}

In /etc/postfix/main.cf I’ve added the following configuration:

transport_maps = regexp:/etc/postfix/sympa-transport-regexp.cf

The file sympa-transport-regexp.cf contains the following:

 /^.*-owner\@mydomain\.ext$/ sympabounce: 

 /^.*\@mydomain\.ext$/ sympa: 

/^.*\@sympalist$/         sympalist:

/^.*\@symparequest$/      symparequest:

/^.*\@sympaeditor$/       sympaeditor:

/^.*\@sympasubscribe$/    sympasubscribe:

/^.*\@sympaunsubscribe$/  sympaunsubscribe:

/^.*\@sympaowner$/        sympabounce:

I am sure that I am missing something, because when I try to send a message e.g. to

address@concealed

postfix rejects the message, it says that the address doesn't exist.

 What am I doing wrong?

I’ve also tried to add to virtual_alias_maps the file located in /etc/mail/sympa/aliases after running the postalias command on it, but nothing changed, it seems that postfix doesn't see any aliases, or, this is my impression.

Thanks in advance for your support.
