Could you share your config for doing this? I did my setup by following |
25 |
the mailman/postfix docs, so right now my config has repeated entries |
26 |
for the virtual domain and the root domain, and while I don't see why I |
27 |
should need the root domain addresses, that's the way mailman seems to |
28 |
want to do it. |

To the OP: you could also use getmail or fetchmail to pull incoming |
31 |
mail via POP or IMAP and feed it to the relevant mailman programs, |
32 |
but you'll have to write your own script for setting up the relevant |
33 |
configuration for the various mailboxes (or do it by hand if you have |
34 |
a limited number of lists). I can't think of any way in which mailman |
35 |
accesses the system mail spool, it is all alias-piped-to-program driven. |
