MailScanner/Sendmail + Mailman?

Hello,

Just in short, if you want to use mm-handler, with sendmail, MS, SA etc
etc etc. Some of my comments when implementing it.

I think it is only reasonable to do if you use 1 specific subdomain to
handle the list.

Don't forget the: VIRTUSER_DOMAIN in the sendmail.mc it took me 2 days to
figure out why it wasn't working, only to see i missed this entry.

Attached is my sendmail.mc, anonymized, and with comments for the
mm-handler setup. Remove the comments to make it an m4.

Oh, and don't add the list.* hostnames to the local-host-names (The Fw
macro.)

in mailertable do:

list.domain-1.com       mailman:list.domain-1.com
etc

And it should work.

Good luck.

P.S. In regards to configing sendmail, the ora bat book is your best
friend. If you need info, you can find it in there, if it doesn't work, it
makes nice sounds when landing on the floor/chair/door or you collegue
;-))

dnl By default, sendmail applies virtusertable mapping, if at all, for
dnl all interfaces for which it accepts mail -- i.e., all domains in
dnl $=w. Mm-handler relies on your having a single domain (hostname)
dnl that serves only lists, with no users. To avoid potential namespace
dnl conflicts, you need not to have this list domain included in $=w.
dnl As a result, virtuser mapping does not apply for the Mailman
dnl list domain. However, you can pre-empt this rule by defining
dnl $={VirtHost}: if there are domains in this class, they will be
dnl mapped before $=w is mapped.
dnl
dnl VIRTUSER_DOMAIN() defines this class.
