Greetings,

I'm new to courier so hopefully this helps explain some of my frusterations and inabilities to get things working. I have followed the instructions in the couriermlm manpage but cannot figure out why mailinglists are not working. Hopefully someone can provide some input for me. My frusteration level is high.

Here is what I have done:

couriermlm create $home/testlist ADDRESS=test...@mydomain.com

The $home is actually /home/mail/username where username is a valid account and exists in the userdb file.

My /usr/lib/courier/etc/dotextension file has one entry ".courier"

I created .courier-testlist which says: | /usr/lib/courier/bin/couriermlm msg /home/mail/username/testlist

I created .courier-testlist-default which says: | /usr/lib/courier/bin/couriermlm ctlmsg /home/mail/username/testlist

I created .courier-testlist-owner which says: user...@mydomain.com

I then manually subscribed a few people: couriermlm sub /home/mail/username/testlist news...@mydomain.com some text here ^d

Sending mail to the account test...@mydomain.com produces a 550 User Unknown

I have tried various incantations of configurations without success (i.e. POST=mod, SUBSCRIBE=mod). Courier is up and running fine. I think I'm missing something with the syntax of .courier files and how they work.

In either case, can someone point me in the right direction and hopefully provide an example that's better than the manpage?

Regards, Jamie French
