Hi! But LMTP is the "Local" Mail Transfer Protocol. I only have access to IMAP, POP3 and SMTP. Outgoing seems to be simple, but what about incoming?
For incoming, you'd have to have a local MTA that can receive emails over SMTP and deliver it to Mailman over LMTP.
I've always setup Mailman with a local MTA but my experience tells me that anything that can listen on a TCP socket on localhost (127.0.0.1 or ::1) can be "convinced" to listen on any other address.
So, Mailman should be able to listen for properly finerwalled LMTP connections external to the server it runs on from an "external" MTA that knows how to deliver via LMTP like, for example, Postfix (I quit speaking Klingon in the late '90s ;-))
