The problem isn't delivering to mailman (I can send a message to mailinglist@host.com), but rather, mailman won't deliver to anybody who isn't local. I have added the various tweaks from README.Exim that came with mailman, but I suspect it's not actually the mailman part, but the exim part that is the problem. Exim is saying it is refusing to relay to a host - this makes me think I have something wrong in exim.conf. The odd thing is that a local user can send mail just fine. Could it be that exim is refusing because mailinglistname doesn't have an account? Hmmm . . . Cluebat?
