Bug Description

Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

https://help.ubuntu.com/13.04/serverguide/mailman.html

Please add this to the mailman configuration page:

When using mailman, if you cannot send emails to outside addresses, edit /etc/postfix/main.cf and add the following at the end mynetworks =

[::1]/128

example:
mynetworks = 127.0.0.0/8, [::1]/128

The Ubuntu Documentation team has moved the serverguide out of the ubuntu-docs source, it is now under the serverguide project. Moving this bug accordingly.

I'll keep this open under ubuntu-docs as it may be a good candidate for a SRU in Lucid.

I'd like to close this bug. Here's the current Mailman configuration section:

Could someone confirm if the addition suggested by Gary should be added?

I've added a note on the postfix page, as ipv6 will be a broader concern than just mailman.
