I have installed qmail and ezmlm but it does not seem to work, nor do i
get any messages about why it is not working. I can make lists, and i have
done this tree times, and have sent messages to them, but they do not seem
to go, nor do i get messages why, except in the maillog file in /var/log/
states this:
qmail: 977266457.397384 delivery 44: deferral:
Unable_to_open_.qmail-testlist2-default:_access_denied._(#4.3.0)/
obviously, i need to change permissions, but to what.... i already
changed them to 777 but still get the same error in the log. who exactly
needs the permissions? Is it the user qmail? what does this user need to
do, write and read this dir?
qmail is running, however, i do not have a qmail-smtp running... this is
what i get with ps -ef

is anything missing here?
1. Documentation says use the programs:
ezmlm-check and ezmlm-test to determine if there are any errors, however,
these programs are not part of my distribution. I have programs called
ezmlm-test.sh and ezmlm-test.0 and ezmlm-test.1, but no ezmlm-check at
all.
2. I tried the ezmlm-idx patch, untarred it and put all files into the
ezmlm-0.53 dir... no where in the documentation does it say anything about
whether i should copy over some files already there... ! Is this the
source of my problem?
I realize that these questions may be fundamental to qmail and mail stuff,
so if i could get pointed in the right direction on basic documentation, i
am very grateful.
Thanks in advance!
