Committing lots of documentation updates, including linking up to the new

mailman-installation guide, and filling out the other formats that seemed to be missing.

+<LI>Mailman will send as many <code>MAIL FROM</code>/<code>RCPT TO</code> as it needs.
+      It may result in more than 10 or 100 messages sent in one connection,
+      which will exceed the default value of Exim's
+      <var>smtp_accept_queue_per_connection</var> value.  This is bad because it
+      will cause Exim to switch into queue mode and severely delay delivery of
+      your list messages.  The way to fix this is to set Mailman's
+      <var>SMTP_MAX_SESSIONS_PER_CONNECTION</var> (in
+      <span class="file"><var>$prefix</var>/Mailman/mm_cfg.py</span>) to a smaller value than Exim's
+      <var>smtp_accept_queue_per_connection</var>.
+
+<P>
+</LI>
+<LI>Mailman should ignore Exim delay warning messages, even though Exim
+      should never send this to list messages.  Mailman 2.1's general bounce
+      detection and VERP support should greatly improve the bounce detector's
+      hit rates.
+
+<P>
+</LI>
+<LI>List existence is determined by the existence of a <span class="file">config.pck</span>
+      file for a list.  If you delete lists by foul means, be aware of this.
+
+<P>
+</LI>
+<LI>If you are getting Exim or Mailman complaining about user ids when you
+      send mail to a list, check that the <var>MAILMAN_USER</var> and
+      <var>MAILMAN_GROUP</var> match those of Mailman itself (i.e. what were used
+      in the <b class="program">configure</b> script).  Also make sure you do not have
+      aliases in the main alias file for the list.
