Hi,
I am a newbie to Procmail and this is my first posting to this
list. I have recently setup procmail with a fair amount of
success. I am able to successfully filter/sort my mails. I have
also in place SpamBouncer and I beleive it is working fine with
procmail. My next step was to install SmartList. I was quite
confident that I could come thru with that also, but as it turned
out my confidence has been shaken. I wonder if anyone of you would
have installed SmartList on a Sun Ultra Sparc running Solaris 7
and Sendmail version 8.9.
As far as I can figure out, I have followed the installation steps
correctly (I hope). I created a 'testing' mailing list and made
the specified entries to my /etc/mail/aliases file. We have NIS
set up here and so I updated the NIS map for aliases. To test the
list I sent a request to testing-request@<my domain> but I got a
returned mail with the following transcript:

I am not sure whether this is a problem with my setup of SmartList
or with the Sendmail version or if I am missing something. Could
someone point me to the right direction if this is not the
appropriate list for such queries. Thanks in advance and sorry if
this is misdirected.
