From 3a258ad5cdd98c5705af6c02ba91993b3d382adc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Barry Warsaw Date: Wed, 5 Dec 2007 17:23:41 -0500 Subject: Because the admin directory is no longer included, the www directory isn't either, and that's where the generated docs used to live. So now, make this directory include the generated docs, removing the old IPC7 and LISA-98 directories, and the .tex source files. These latter are moved to the admin repository. --- doc/mailman-install/node12.html | 144 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 144 insertions(+) create mode 100644 doc/mailman-install/node12.html (limited to 'doc/mailman-install/node12.html') diff --git a/doc/mailman-install/node12.html b/doc/mailman-install/node12.html new file mode 100644 index 00000000..14461325 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/mailman-install/node12.html @@ -0,0 +1,144 @@ + + + + + + + + + + + + + +6.1 Using the Postfix mail server + + + + + +

+6.1 Using the Postfix mail server +

+ +

+Mailman should work pretty much out of the box with a standard Postfix +installation. It has been tested with various Postfix versions up to and +including Postfix 2.1.5. + +

+In order to support Mailman's optional VERP delivery, you will want to disable +luser_relay (the default) and you will want to set +recipient_delimiter for extended address semantics. You should comment +out any luser_relay value in your main.cf and just go with the +defaults. Also, add this to your main.cf file: + +

+

+    recipient_delimiter = +
+
+ +

+Using "+" as the delimiter works well with the default values for +VERP_FORMAT and VERP_REGEXP in Defaults.py. + +

+When attempting to deliver a message to a non-existent local address, Postfix +may return a 450 error code. Since this is a transient error code, Mailman +will continue to attempt to deliver the message for +DELIVERY_RETRY_PERIOD - 5 days by default. You might want to set +Postfix up so that it returns permanent error codes for non-existent local +users by adding the following to your main.cf file: + +

+

+    unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550
+
+ +

+Finally, if you are using Postfix-style virtual domains, read the section on +virtual domain support below. + +
