What version of Exim / Mailman are you running?

Subject: [Exim] exim - mailman faq not working for me



hey,
I am my wits end here. I have followed the faq to the letter on my debian
woody box.

this is the main problem:

gymaware:~# exim -bt gymaware-users
user "gymaware-users" for file existence test not found
gymaware-users@??? is undeliverable:
  unknown local-part "gymaware-users" in domain "gymaware.com" gymaware:~#

the relevant exim config bits are below, I'm not sure if its a debian thing
but i don't have the MAILMAN_HOME/lists/$local_part/config.pck instead there
is a file called ../../../config.db. is this relavent? I tried changing
MAILMAN_HOME/lists/$local_part/config.pck to
MAILMAN_HOME/lists/$local_part/config.db but that did nothing.

What have i missed?

                 {post}}' \
          $local_part
   current_directory = MAILMAN_HOME
   home_directory = MAILMAN_HOME
   user = list                          <--- mailman running as user "list"
   group = list
