Which, incidentally, has its own mailing list.  Kindly use that list in
future for ezmlm-related questions.

Apparently confused enough to substitute different values for them in
/every one/ of your commands.  You really ought to be more consistent
in future.

(Are you really running these commands as root?  The instructions assume
you're running them under your own UID.)

$ ezmlm-make ~/testlist ~/.qmail-testlist nasir-testlist mydomain.com

> # ezmlm-sub ~/testlist nasir@mydomain.com

This one's correct, which makes your other errors all the more puzzling.

$ echo subject:testing | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject nasir-testlist@mydomain.com
