Subject: mlmmj: Default setting for list owner doesn't seem to work

Date: Mon, 07 Mar 2011 14:47:33 +0000

Package: mlmmj
Version: 1.2.17-1
Severity: normal


In mlmmj-make-ml, the default owner for the list is "postmaster", but
this seems not to work. I get messages in my /var/log/mail.info like:

Mar  7 14:41:33 femur /usr/bin/mlmmj-send[2281]: mlmmj-send.c:637: No @ in address, ignoring postmaster: Success

I imagine therefore that something like "postmaster@localhost" is
needed instead.

No, you are supposed to have the postmaster setup correctly in your
/etc/aliases. This isn't a bug, and I'm closing it.

From my /etc/aliases:

postmaster:    root
root: rrt

(rrt is my user)

From aliases(5)

     The format of the alias database input file is as follows:

       ·      An alias definition has the form

                   name: value1, value2, ...

...

       The name is a local address (no domain part).

This seems to be valid.
