LinuxQuestions.org - Postfix Help...

Hi All -

I'm working on setting up a server that is going to be used for mailing lists. I am using Mailman 2.1.12 and postfix 2.2.9. I originally had a thread for Mailman help, but I think I'm past that and now need help with postfix.

A little bit about our setup. We have recently moved to Google Apps for Education (GAE) for our e-mail and it is out in the cloud. I am setting up Mailman in house as a VM running SuSe 10 SP1. We still send e-mail to user@school.edu and I am setting up Mailman to use listname@lists.school.edu for the lists.

AFAIK, Mailman is up and running properly. I can successfully send messages to the premade account -- mailman@lists.school.edu -- and can read those messages in /var/spool/mail/root.

I can also send messages to listname@lists.school.edu, but I think this is where it gets stuck. When I look at the Postfix queue this is what I see:

Code:

mailman:/usr/local/mailman/mail # postqueue -p

-Queue ID- --Size-- ----Arrival Time---- -Sender/Recipient-------

1C03912C47    1234 Fri May  1 01:27:16  listname-bounces@lists.school.edu

            (connect to aspmx.l.google.com[209.85.221.67]: Connection refused)

                                        hotmailuser@hotmail.com

                                        user@school.edu

So, is this a Postfix configuration error I'm stuck at?

Also, here is the results from postconf -n:

Thanks for any help anyone can give me!!
