[Sampler] mailman

😀
I've regenerated the /etc/mailman alias databases. I've let mailman
regenerate both aliases and  virtual-mailman. Both files look very clean. I
ran the mailman check_perms command and fixed minor permission issues.
Still no luck.
The problem was that postfix does not execute the mailman command:

Jun 16 08:46:14 driftwood postfix/local[16482]: 506713023050:
to=<|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post sampler at blu.org>, orig_to=<
sampler at blu.org>, relay=local, delay=15, delays=15/0.04/0/0.07, dsn=5.1.1,
status=bounced (unknown user: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post sampler")

The fix is in main.cf, changed:
virtual_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual hash:/etc/postfix/longnames
hash:/etc/mailman/aliases hash:/etc/mailman/virtual-mailman
virtual_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/virtual hash:/etc/postfix/longnames

Both the mailman alias databases are generated by mailman.
