Dear all,
I am running Debian Trixie with Postfix.
Now I want to install Mailman via virtualenv.
All looks fine so far but when I insert
transport_maps = hash:/home/mailman_var/data/postfix_lmtp
local_recipient_maps = hash:/home/mailman_var/data/postfix_lmtp
relay_domains = hash:/home/mailman_var/data/postfix_domains
to main.cf I get an error when sending emails. Understandable, because there is no postfix_lmtp available.
When will it be created? I haven't observed any error at the installation up to that point.
Thanks for your help, Flo
PS: I changed var_dir to /home/mailman_var because I thought data should be better at the home partition, especially as I was afraid they might take a lot of space and there is not a lot available at the root partition. I don't know if this is a good idea.

postfix_lmtp and postfix_domains will be created the first time you start Mailman core. You can create them without starting Mailman core with the command
mailman aliases

Did I forget something to install? I can't see where I made a mistake looking to the documentation.
