TwitterSince plesk 9 there seems to be a bug with postfix updates which breaks mailman list functionality.
Ever since I need to correct /etc/postix/master.cf after every update of plesk postfix as the line
mailman unix - n n - - pipe flags=Ru user=li...
gets replaced by
mailman unix - n n - - pipe flags=R user=li..
Explanation:
I have setup some lists with mailman under plesk9 and somewhere in the process there occurred a capitalization of the first letter of list names.
I don't know where the mismatch is buried but somewhere there exist entries like 'Listname' instead of 'listname'.
I see that the web Gui of mailman always show list names with capitalized first letters even though the real list name is all lower case so I suspect the mismatch originates in this area.
In most mailers mail addresses are case insensitive but not so with mailman and postfix unless you have the flags=Ru setting.
The error message I get if flags=Ru is not given is shown below.
Without flags=Ru it is not possible to send to Listname@example.com nor to listname@example.com
It is a real nag that plesk updates always break my mailing list functionality.
Plesk updates should set flags=Ru as default or at least issue a notification about a changed master.cf
