Hi,

I transferred mailman lists from old to new server following the wiki (skipped section Personalisation):

http://wiki.contribs.org/Mailman

On the new server mailman web interface is working , settings seams to be intact and memberships are completed.

The problem is that when I try to send a message to the existing list I got following replay from server:

Hi. This is the qmail-send program at domain.com.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

<list-name@mail.domain.com>:
Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)

I tried to fix the permissions:

[root@mail ~]# /usr/lib/mailman/bin/check_perms -f
/etc/mailman/mm_cfg.py bad group (has: root, expected mailman) (fixing)
directory must be at least 02775: /var/spool/mailman/qfiles (fixing)
Problems found: 2
Re-run as mailman (or root) with -f flag to fix
[root@mail ~]# service mailman restart -f
Shutting down mailman:                                     [  OK  ]
Starting mailman:                                          [  OK  ]

Without success. Mailman refuses to send mails.

Thank you for your help

D.
