two questions about mailman

[Scott Berry]

This isn't my
 Qmail. It's coming from the ISP.  So I am thinking that I will have to
redirect one of the ports either smtp or pop but I think it's smtp.  What do
you think?

Set-up your webserver to include the Mailman Apache stanzas. There's an
example, iirc, in /etc/mailman/ somewhere.

Ditch Qmail for a start ;)

  adam at tanqueray:~$ dig -x 75.104.20.208 | grep PTR

Looks like you're not relaying on the dyndns.org machine:

adam at tanqueray:~$ telnet blindscanner.dyndns.org 25
  Trying 75.104.20.208...
  Connected to blindscanner.dyndns.org.
  Escape character is '^]'.

  250 2.1.0 Ok
  rcpt to:<blind-scanner at blindscanner.dyndns.org>
  554 5.7.1 <blind-scanner at blindscanner.dyndns.org>: Relay access denied

So, as the errors say, relay'ing isn't permitted/being denied, so you
need to fix your Postfix install.
