Here is an interesting mail question. I just got an email returned with
the following error message
----- Transcript of session follows -----
550 :include:/www/ocbarr/maillist/boardml.txt... Cannot open
/www/ocbarr/maillist/boardml.txt: Group writable directory
554 <board@domain.com>... aliasing/forwarding loop broken
Permissions of /www/ocbarr/maillist are
drw-r--r-- 2 spirit spirit 512 Dec 13 17:09 maillist
(not group writable)
boardml.txt permissions are
-rw-r--r-- 1 spirit spirit 291 Dec 5 07:04 boardml.txt
and the file just contains a list of email address, one per line.
in /etc/virtusertable I have
board@domain.com board_ocb@server.com
board_ocb in /etc/aliases is
board_ocb:
:include:/www/ocbarr/maillist/boardml.txt
Anyone have any ideas why this is getting hung up. I first had the group
writable problem when I upgraded to Sendmail 8.9.1 and changing the
permissions which seemed to solve the problem. I have been messing around
with majordomo digests and such, but this isn't getting routed through
majordomo as far as I can see.
sendmail -bv board_ocb produces the same error message as above.
Does anyone have any clues what might be happening here?
Jerry
