<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>
|
||
|
||
<h4>The above tip works with Mailman 2.0; Mailman 2.1 has
|
||
adopted something very similar so that no workaround is
|
||
necessary. See the README.POSTFIX file included with
|
||
Mailman-2.1.<br>
