When running mailman3, do I need to set up a completely different virtual domain for it to run in?
No.
My "real" domain name is libertyfp.org, and I'm trying to make mailman work on that domain, e.g. "testlist@libertyfp.org." I'm starting to get the idea that I need to stick a completely different domain in there for the mailinglist.
No.
DNS or anywhere outside your server.
Have you actually set an alias domain in Postorius for the libertyfp.org domain. It doesn't matter what name it is as long as it isn't a real domain. A good choice is x.libertyfp.org. Have you set that or things like
testlist@libertyfp.org testlist@x.libertyfp.org testlist-bounces@libertyfp.org testlist-bounces@x.libertyfp.org testlist-confirm@libertyfp.org testlist-confirm@x.libertyfp.org ... [snip]
Ah. I misunderstood you. I thought you meant that I had to tweak *postfix* to get this done. It's not that you weren't clear, it's that when I read the mailman3 instructions, I got the impression that *mailman* would set the alias domain automatically, so I was dead set on munging postfix.
This makes more sense, and I can back out of some of the changes I made in postfix, which for the last couple of rounds was mostly flailing about randomly -- I've heard that's often not a good admin strategy.
So.. if I need to do it myself, can you point me to what file I need to create/modify in the /opt/mailman/mm tree to set up the alias?
Thanks!
