<p>hello</p>
<p>I'm struggling with Mailman on a 5209R, it won't send out the
approved mail...</p>
<p>A maillist member is sending to the list. The mail waits for
approval from the list owner even though he is member, probably
because he is sending from <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:user@domain.tld">user@domain.tld</a> instead of
<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:user@www.domain.tld">user@www.domain.tld</a> (couldn't find out how to prevent this...).
Anyway, the list owner gets a mail for approval and submits <tt>(•)Accept</tt>
and <tt>[√]Add <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:user@domain.tld">user@domain.tld</a> to one of these sender filters:
(•)Accepts</tt>.</p>
<p>But that approval never gets out. In <tt>/var/log/mailman/smtp-failure</tt>
it reads:</p>
<pre>Apr 24 08:29:04 2017 (2326) Low level smtp error: [Errno 111] Connection refused, msgid: <a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="mailto:mailman.0.1493015343.24172.list-name@domain.tld"><mailman.0.1493015343.24172.list-name@domain.tld></a>
Apr 24 08:29:04 2017 (2326) delivery to <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:listnameowner@www.domain.tld">listnameowner@www.domain.tld</a> failed with code -1: [Errno 111] Connection refused</pre>
<p>What's going on? Why is the mail refused? I sent from a gmail
account to that <tt><a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:listnameowner@www.domain.tld">listnameowner@www.domain.tld</a></tt> address, no
problemsaccepting the mail. I checked:</p>
<pre>[~]# telnet localhost 25
