    Hi , I would like add an address [email protected]
    useradd -s /bin/bash -d /home/info -m info
    I wrote this code, it can open for other email adresses but when I wanna open info@ , it cannot be open,
    when I add an address to the server, to activate it, I send a message to the address then in the directory of the address that I created,Maildir is builded and we can use that email address.
    but for info@... it cannot be occured, maildir cannot be occured,
    can it be info a reserved word for email addres,
    do you have any idea that how I can fix this problem,
    thank you

    nupe, unfourtunately the problem isnot such as easy, I look the table of users, than add , when adding the info, there is no problem I can change password, but activation is problem,
    I deleted the info then again create one , but nothing helped, I didnt understand why,but it can not be acitvated,how I can fix ,I dunno .

    What table? MySQL? You checked if the user already exists in table? Did you check if user already exist in /home? You cannot have two users with the same name like /home/info. You confused me, need some food :D

    I looked of course not in mysql:),
    /home
    in here info there is not another one, just wonder ,when you create a email address, then you email it, to be activated
    after when you look inside home/newone
    there is Maildir and public_html

    but for Info,after sending email, when I look inside /home/info
    just there is public_html
    there is no Maildir,
    so how can it be fixed, have you any idea , I hope and beg that you have any idea :)

    What's in /etc/aliases?
    What's in /etc/postfix/main.cf (please strip out the comments)?

    I found the problem, there was a maillist group in Mailman , in that maillist there was an info email, I try to erase list but I couldnt , in Mailman web interface, there is no erase button for maillist, I just erase all email list in the mail list, now info email occured, I created . but I wonder how I can erase the unwannted maillist groups, because in command line groupdel info, I wrote but , it says there is no a group such as info, I used rmlist but it said there is no command like that,
    how I can erase a maillist, group that created in Mailman,in command line I look groups file there was no info, it should be maillist file, or such as that,
    pls comment
    thank you
