Hello, I am quite new to Mailman3 and have been trying to get a working local test setup on a single VM (Centos07) I have issue where if I send an email to the list. it does not send emails on to the people subscribed to that list. Note the steps below were put together from memory after a few days of repeatably trying different things so there will be some inaccuracies I have mailman running on same local box as postfix, postorius and hyperkitty. I have root as the superuser in Postorius and have tried the following: In unix shell created new user 'developer' In unix shell created new user 'tester' In shell send an email from developer user to tester: echo 'Hello' | mailx -s 'Hello Subject line' tester@sandbox.mytest.com Confirmed user tester received email in cat /home/tester/Maildir/new/ folder: Return-Path: <developer@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com> X-Original-To: tester@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com Delivered-To: tester@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com Received: by cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com (Postfix, from userid 1000) In Postorius web frontend: Signed up as root Received confirmation email in /root/Maildir/new/ folder so cut and pasted the Url in the email to activate account. Created new list called testlist@sandbox.mytest.com Logged out Signed up as tester Received confirmation email in /home/tester/Maildir/new/ folder so cut and pasted the Url to activate account. Subscribed tester to the testlist. Next in unix shell su as developer and send an email to testlist@sandbox.mytest.com The root user gets the following email Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Subject: Your message to testlist@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com awaits moderator approval From: testlist-bounces@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com To: developer@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com Message-ID: <158824480291.3035.17408340520496115243@localhost.localdomain> Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2020 11:06:42 +0000 Precedence: bulk X-Mailman-Version: 3.3.0 Your mail to 'testlist@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com' with the subject hello there 2 Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval. The message is being held because: The message is not from a list member Either the message will get posted to the list, or you will receive notification of the moderator's decision. Once I have gone back into Postorius as root and approved the message, root user gets a second email: Return-Path: <testlist-bounces@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com> X-Original-To: root@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com Delivered-To: root@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com Received: from localhost.localdomain (localhost [IPv6:::1]) by cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com (Postfix) with ESMTP id E056A84CE4 for <root@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com>; Thu, 30 Apr 2020 11:09:10 +0000 (UTC) Received: by cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com (Postfix, from userid 1000) id 8F1B684CE4; Thu, 30 Apr 2020 11:06:41 +0000 (UTC) Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2020 11:06:41 +0000 To: testlist@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com User-Agent: Heirloom mailx 12.5 7/5/10 MIME-Version: 1.0 Message-Id: <20200430110641.8F1B684CE4@sandbox.mytest.com> From: developer@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com X-MailFrom: developer@cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com X-Mailman-Rule-Hits: nonmember-moderation X-Mailman-Rule-Misses: dmarc-mitigation; no-senders; approved; emergency; loop; banned-address; member-moderation Message-ID-Hash: FAPTJKJRZG2ELSOSBRBIDOBWXP3Y5QAY X-Message-ID-Hash: FAPTJKJRZG2ELSOSBRBIDOBWXP3Y5QAY X-Mailman-Approved-At: Thu, 30 Apr 2020 11:09:10 +0000 X-Mailman-Version: 3.3.0 Precedence: list Subject: [Testlist] hello there 2 List-Id: A test list <testlist.sandbox.mytest.com> List-Help: <mailto:testlist-request@sandbox.mytest.com?subject=help> List-Post: <mailto:testlist@sandbox.mytest.com> List-Subscribe: <mailto:testlist-join@sandbox.mytest.com> List-Unsubscribe: <mailto:testlist-leave@sandbox.mytest.com> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit A test email 2 _______________________________________________ Testlist mailing list -- testlist@sandbox.mytest.com To unsubscribe send an email to testlist-leave@sandbox.mytest.com At no point does the email appear in the tester@sandbox.mytest.com Maildir Configs as follows.. ================================================================================================== /etc/postfix/main.cf: ================================================================================================== queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix command_directory = /usr/sbin daemon_directory = /usr/libexec/postfix data_directory = /var/lib/postfix mail_owner = postfix myhostname = cloud7.sandbox.mytest.com mydomain = sandbox.mytest.com myorigin = $mydomain inet_interfaces = all inet_protocols = all mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, mail.$mydomain, www.$mydomain, ftp.$mydomain, sandbox.mytest.com unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550 # Next line Obfuscated mynetworks = 192.***.***.0/24, 127.0.0.0/8 alias_maps = hash:/etc/aliases alias_database = hash:/etc/aliases recipient_delimiter = + home_mailbox = Maildir/ debug_peer_level = 2 debug_peer_list = sandbox.mytest.com debugger_command = PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin ddd $daemon_directory/$process_name $process_id & sleep 5 sendmail_path = /usr/sbin/sendmail.postfix newaliases_path = /usr/bin/newaliases.postfix mailq_path = /usr/bin/mailq.postfix setgid_group = postdrop html_directory = no manpage_directory = /usr/share/man sample_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix-2.10.1/samples readme_directory = /usr/share/doc/postfix-2.10.1/README_FILES disable_dns_lookups = yes owner_request_special = no transport_maps = hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/postfix_lmtp # Setting to nothing fixes 'Recepient address rejected: User unknown in local recipient table local_recipient_maps = relay_domains = hash:/var/lib/mailman/data/postfix_domains ================================================================================================== /etc/mailman.cfg ================================================================================================== [devmode] enabled: yes recipient: root@sandbox.mytest.com [mailman] # local = Recommended as installing mailman from source.
