<h4>The following was posted on the Postfix mailing list on 5/4/2002 by Michael
|
||
Tokarev as a suggested addition to the Postfix FAQ.</h4>
|
||
<p>Q: Mailman does not work with Postfix, complaining about GID mismatch<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
A: Mailman uses a setgid wrapper that is designed to be used in system-wide
|
||
aliases file so that rest of mailman's mail handling processes will run with
|
||
proper uid/gid. Postfix has an ability to run a command specified in an alias as
|
||
owner of that alias, thus mailman's wrapper is not needed here. The best method
|
||
to invoke mailman's mail handling via aliases is to use separate alias file
|
||
especially for mailman, and made it owned by mailman and group mailman. Like:<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
alias_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/aliases, hash:/var/mailman/aliases<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
Make sure that /var/mailman/aliases.db is owned by mailman user (this may be
|
||
done by executing postalias as mailman userid).<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
Next, instead of using mailman-suggested aliases entries with wrapper, use the
|
||
following:<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
instead of<br>
|
||
mailinglist: /var/mailman/mail/wrapper post mailinglist<br>
|
||
mailinglist-admin: /var/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner mailinglist<br>
|
||
mailinglist-request: /var/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd mailinglist<br>
|
||
...<br>
|
||
<br>
|
||
use<br>
|
||
mailinglist: /var/mailman/scripts/post mailinglist<br>
|
||
mailinglist-admin: /var/mailman/scripts/mailowner mailinglist<br>
|
||
mailinglist-request: /var/mailman/scripts/mailcmd mailinglist<br>
|
||
...</p>
