Re: [mlmmj] Errors on Cron job

Ben, Thanks for your friendly reply.

I have indeed copied the files to the /usr/bin directory. Usually this 
would break other references in other programs. But I remembered after 
reading your mail that MLMMJ has no dependencies.

I've corrected some Permissions errors in the /var/spool/mlmmj/ 
directory. But I still don't get any mail back from mlmmj even though 
the list does actually receive it.

The queue directory in the mailing list folder has several files in it. 
Which I guess are some of the test messages I've sent.

  * Since correcting the permissions I've not received any errors or
    messages from the mlmmj-test group.
  * Any idea how I could check why this is not being processed?

Here's more information on the Troubleshooting process up to this point:

I'm still getting this nagging thing with the mail. I've tested my Exim 
config as suggested in the mlmmj-exim readme files.
And everything checks out nicely. Email does in fact get routed to 
MLMMJ's spool directory.

But I get an error message back when I post to the list:

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software.

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
recipients. This is a permanent error. The following address(es) failed:

   [email protected]
     local delivery failed

BTW - My email address and the mlmmj group are on the same server
