Hi,

I have tried to set up Mailman with exim4 on a Debian platform. I can
get Mailman to work via the web pages such as admin, create lists,
subscibe etc. But when I try to send an email to the list nothing
happens. I get the following error in the exim4/smtp-failure file:

2011-09-16 17:53:11 H=localhost (asdd.osdm.gov.au) [127.0.0.1]
F=<mailman-bounces+info=mymaps.gov.au at mymaps.gov.au> temporarily
rejected RCPT <info at mymaps.gov.au>: expected "sender[=address]",
"recipient", "helo", "header_syntax", "header_sender" or
"reverse_host_lookup" at start of ACL condition "verify recipients"

This makes me think that I have an exim4 configuration problem.
Something like allowing to and from external emails. I have searched the
wiki but I can't find anywhere that tells me where too look or how to
fix this problem.

I'm running:

Mailman version: 2.1.14
Python 2.5.2
Debian GNU/Linux 5.0.5
Exim version 4.69 #1 built 30-Sep-2008 18:54:33

Can someone help?

Thanks.

John
