Thanks for the recommendations! I have installed mailman and it seems to
work well.
I do have this little problem with the entry it left in /etc/cron.d
I think that I activated it by editing (is that possible) and since that
happened, I have received errors in the root mail of this nature:
Subject: Cron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> list [ -x /usr/bin/python -a -f
+/usr/lib/mailman/cron/run_queue ] && /usr/bin/python
+/usr/lib/mailman/cron/run_queue
X-Cron-Env: <SHELL=/bin/sh>
X-Cron-Env: <HOME=/root>
X-Cron-Env: <PATH=/usr/bin:/bin>
X-Cron-Env: <LOGNAME=root>
/bin/sh: list: command not found
and also a mail that I made to the test list resulted in:
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Mail sent to Test
To: root
X-Mailman-Version: 1.1
Precedence: bulk
List-Id: Testlijst <test.avondel.nl>
Your mail to 'Test' with the subject:
Cron <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> list [ -x /usr/bin/python -a -f
/usr/lib/mailman/cron/run_queue ] &&
/usr/bin/python
/usr/lib/mailman/cron/run_queue
Is being held until the list moderator can review it for approval.
The reason it is being held:
Implicit destination
I have tried to find the reason in the doc's, but did not manage.
I am not sure what went wrong, but it seems that the file in
/etc/cron.d did not belong in root's crontab?
Any suggestions or pointers are much appreciated!
