Hi; I'm running into trouble getting Mail Boxer to play nicely with qMail. I've installed and tested Maildrop Host. It works ok, so that potential bug is eliminated. I was confused as to where to put smtp2zope.py, so I put it here: /usr/bin/smtp2zope.py and symlinked it here: /usr/local/sbin/smtp2zope.py /var/qmail/bin/smtp2zope.py just to be safe ;) One of the how-to's I read said I should create the following file: /var/qmail/aliases/.qmail-foo where "foo" is the name of my list, and enter the following line by itself: foo: "|smtp2zope.py http://127.0.0.1:8080/foo/mailinglist/manage_mailboxer 20000" where the second "foo/mailinglist" is my path to the Mail Boxer instance. and finally I send a message to foo@smtp.example.com but I didn't get anything back. Did I get subscribed? How do I know? I don't see any entry in the "maillist" in the properties tab. Also, one of the how-to's said I should set up a forwarding email address. That's not necessary, is it? TIA, Nancy
My recommendation would be to use a real mailing list manager like mailman instead... Chris Nancy Donnelly wrote:
