Subject:[maildropl] mailman, mysql, and maildropActions...

(I sent this to mailman-users as well... fishing for help here as well.)

Greetings! I must preface this by noting that I have in fact Googled for this but have not found any solutions that work. I have an Ubuntu box (Hardy) and have a mysql/postfix setup as documented in the Flurdy howto found at http://flurdy.com/docs/postfix/ ... but I also have maildrop in the mix. It seems to work ok, except with mailman. I added mailman last night and now I'm getting the following error when I try to send to list addresses.

status=bounced (user unknown. Command output: ERR: authdaemon: s_connect() failed: Permission denied Invalid user specified. )

Now, I realize what the error is telling me. It's having problems finding the user. I have the users in a mysql db, and the structure looks like the following:

Should I put something for the mailman addresses in there as well? I can do that, since I don't have that many lists. If not, is there another way around this? I did try just telling postfix to look at another transport map, but maildrop is still involved and it's looking at the mysql db.

(otherwise, everything else seems to be working.. it's just this part that I'm getting hung up on!)

cheers,
