Troubleshooting

If you encounter problems with running Mailman, first check the "Common Problems" section, below. If your problem is not covered there, check the file FAQ and FAQ.LINUX. Then check for a log entry from Mailman in your syslog.

Where syslog lives on your particular machine may vary. It may be in /var/log/maillog. It may also be in /var/log/syslog. On many machines, syslog files live in /adm/log/ instead of /var/log.

If you encounter an error, send an error report to mailman-users@python.org. Include a description of what you're doing to cause the problem, and the relevant lines from your syslog. Also include information on your operating system and version of Python.
