Hello Agro,

that is what I have, too. Did you already read and follow

        /usr/local/share/doc/mlmmj/README ?

When OpenSMTPd receives a message destined for a mlmmj-run list, how
does OpenSMTPd get to know that fact? Via aliases(5)? Via forward(5)?

In my case this goes like:

-> OpenSMTPd receives the messages for <[email protected]> and looks
   for the delivery info.
-> aliases tells it to deliver mail for <[email protected]> to the
   system user "testlist".
-> the system user "testlist" has in its .forward:
   |/usr/local/bin/mlmmj-receive -L \
        /home/mlists/at.weiliwohn.ml.weiliwohn-info

This way the inbound messages ends up beeing handled by mlmmj. 

There are multiple ways to achieve this, the one above is just my
preferred one. 

A little more info on your setup, your configs and your logs would help!
