Topic: ezmlm w/ sub & mod

[Shad]

Has anyone else tried to get ezmlm working with SME v5.0?  I have played with different options and most of them seem to work.  However the option that I want to use doesn't seem to work.

What I want is a list that only allows subscribers to post to the list but if someone that isn't subscribed post I don't want it to reject the email but instead forward it on to a moderator to accept or reject it.

My understanding is that if you us options 'm' and 'u' together it should give you this.  When i do this anyone who sends an email to the list gets an error back like the following:

ezmlm-gate: fatal: unable to execute /usr/bin/ezmlm-store '/home/e-smith/ezmlm/domain.local/TEST': file does not exist
ezmlm-gate: fatal: fatal error from child

When I make the list completely moderated or only subscribers it works.

I am having this exact problem as well.

I am using on a 5.1b4 box the following:
 - ezmlm-idx-std-0.40-2.i386.rpm
 - e-smith-ezmlm-idx-0.1.3-19.noarch.rpm

It should work!  The ezmlm-make man page has the following for the -u flag (Notice the last paragraph):

       -u   User posts only.  ezmlm-make sets up the list so that
            posts  and  archive  access  is  restricted  to  sub-
            scribers.  These are addresses subscribed to the main
            list,  the  digest,  or added manually to the address
            database in dir/allow/ which  accommodates  addresses
            from  e.g.  subscribers working from an address other
            than their subscriber address.

            Posts from  unrecognized  SENDER  addresses  will  be
            rejected.   This  is  relatively  easily defeated for
            posts.  More secure alternatives are  message  moder-
            ated  lists  configured with the ezmlm-make -m switch
            (without the -u switch).

            There is no reason to combine  of  SENDER  checks  on
            posts  with message moderation. Therefore, the combi-
            nation of the -u switch with the -m  switch  is  used
            for  a  configuration  with SENDER restrictions (like
            with -u alone), with the difference that  posts  from
            non-subscribers  will  be sent for moderation instead
            of being rejected. This allows the list admin to  let
            non-subscribers  post  occasionally,  as  well  as to
            catch   subscribers   posting   from   non-subscriber
            addresses.
