First when added a new mailing list I get the error: Account already exists, please choose another one. but it did add the mailing list (or appeared to).

I attempted to add a user to the mailing list (with a confirmation email). I replied to the confirmation email and it bounced with "user unknown.

Re: mlmmjadmin broken

Please show me output of commands below:

grep 'version' /opt/mlmmjadmin/libs/__init__.py
grep '^backend' /opt/mlmmjadmin/settings.py

if you're not running the latest mlmmjadmin-1.4, please try to upgrade it first then try to reproduce this issue again. The upgrade is VERY simple:
https://github.com/iredmail/mlmmjadmin/ … UPGRADE.md

This is a new install from the upgrade instructions.

root@mail1:~# grep 'version' /opt/mlmmjadmin/libs/__init__.py
__version__ = '1.4'
root@mail1:~# grep '^backend' /opt/mlmmjadmin/settings.py
backend_api = "bk_iredmail_ldap"
backend_cli = "bk_iredmail_ldap"

I originally had backend_api to bk_none as per the instructions (since I have Pro) - https://docs.iredmail.org/integration.mlmmj.ldap.html however I was getting weird errors from iredadmin such as like API key not set, API server not reachable, and the mlmmjadmin uwsgi instance killing itself (I tried restarting nginx and uwsgi and didn't seem to help). On a reboot it seemed to clear up the issues. I tried to set it back to bk_none but I still get bounces.

The instructions didn't specify but is there a specific place I need to put the modification in master.cf for postfix? Right now my mlmmj config is right above the maildrop line. I did try to add to the bottom and that didn't work.

Edit: After setting the backend_api back to bk_none adding a mailing list works fine now and does not return that mailing list already exists. However, I still get bounces from the mailing list itself (for example replying to confirm email).

Edit 2: I noticed that there is a link for "Get a newsletter signup form" on the newsletter tab. This link describes a /newsletter/ url but I don't think there was any mention of nginx modification in the instructions to enable that. I'm combing through their instructions as well and I think there are some modifications that are still needed.

Edit 3: Do I need to be on Debian 9? I'm currently on Debian 8.

Edit 4: The URL it shows is incorrect - instead of /newsletter/ it should be /iredmail/newsletter/ . And even when navigating to the URL for that newsletter it came back with the error of invalid newsletter.

If you manage mailing lists with iRedAdmin-Pro, please set "backend_api = 'bk_none'".

The order of each transport doesn't matter in master.cf.

What's the content in bounce message? We need this for troubleshooting.

You're correct, iRedMail upgrade tutorial missed this part. i will add it immediately.

Related to your question in "Edit 2". Fix is coming.

Re: mlmmjadmin broken

If you manage mailing lists with iRedAdmin-Pro, please set "backend_api = 'bk_none'".

I have updated it since replying:

root@mail1:~# grep '^backend' /opt/mlmmjadmin/settings.py
backend_api = "bk_none"
backend_cli = "bk_iredmail_ldap"

Debian 8 is ok too.

Do you recommend upgrading to Debian 9 at this time? It looks like Debian 8 is in LTS support phase now.

Thank you for the updates - I'm usually pretty good at following instructions and was going crazy thinking I missed something.

Postfix cannot find this account by LDAP query.
