Clue for integrating Mailman and Scalix CE?

[skk54]

Hi,
I have been trying to get mailman working with scalix CE, and I am close, but not quite there yet. (Scalix 10, Suse 10) Scalix is working fine.
The mailman web interface is up, a new list has been created (test) and aliases are copied to /etc/aliases and newalias has been run.
When sending mail from the command line on the scalix server (which is the mailman server) to the list test, the mail appears in my scalix mailbox (I am the list owner/moderator) for approval.

However, when I send an email to the list from a non-scalix account (gmail), I get it refused with the usual '550: Denined due to spam list'.

I know this is a simple missed step on my part, so if someone could point me in the right direction, I would be most appreciative.

Thanks

Hi,
Sorry to answer my own post, but I think I have found what the trouble is:
In moving to scalix, we are doing it a few users at a time, which means that both mail systems must be active during the change.
This leads to two machines claiming to be the 'mail.domain' which causes problems for things like mailing lists.
While mailman works fine with scalix ordinarily, it just doesn't work in my setup the way I want it to at the moment.
When I get all users moved from the legacy system, I'll try again.
Apologies for the noise.
