If it's installed from a .deb package, why is there anything in /usr/local/bin ? You should find stuff in /var/lib/majordomo (also check error messages in /var/log/majordomo ) Which mail transport agent are you using ? smail , sendmail, exim ? The installation from the .deb files seems to be most compatible with sendmail. > > I have checked the listname file, and it contains only addresses. Any > thoughts? Do local addresses work and not remote? Or vice versa ? or neither ? If you are running debian, we'll get it figured out !
