The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

[Andy Moss <address@concealed>]

Good morning everyone,

I am trying to set up sympa for a non-profit that was using mailman. Due 
to a server failure and then upgrade, mailman isn't available on ubuntu 
22.04. At least not as an apt install type thing.

Found sympa as a replacement. And I have worked through the instructions 
repeatedly and somewhere I'm coming up short.

The web interface works. I can log in and I can make a list. I can add 
subscribers to it. And I can make a post to it on the web interface and 
it goes out to the subscribers of my test group.

However, what is failing is that NOTHING coming in to the server is 
being routed into sympa. I'm 100% confident that this is a "me" problem.

I'm using webmin / virtualmin for all things server config. All that 
said, I did all of the config for sympa by hand following the 
instructions line by line. But something is still not right.

I'm including the files that I think are relevant and I'm hoping someone 
can point me in the right direction.

Thanks in advance!
Warmest,
Andy
