+<P>
+For more detailed information about using Mailman, including creating and
+configuring mailing lists, see the Mailman List Adminstration Manual. These
+instructions provide a quick guide to creating your first mailing list via the
+web interface:
+
+<P>
+
+<UL>
+<LI>Start by visiting the url <code>http://my.dom.ain/mailman/create</code>.
+
+<P>
+</LI>
+<LI>Fill out the form as described in the on-screen instructions, and in the
+ ``List creator's password'' field, type the password you entered in
+ section <A href="customizing.html#customizing">11</A>. Type your own email address for the
+ ``Initial list owner address'', and select ``Yes'' to notify the list
+ administrator.
+
+<P>
+</LI>
+<LI>Click on the ``Create List'' button.
+
+<P>
+</LI>
+<LI>Check your email for a message from Mailman informing you that your new
+ mailing list was created.
+
+<P>
+</LI>
+<LI>Now visit the list's administration page, either by following the link
+ on the confirmation web page or clicking on the link from the email
+ Mailman just sent you. Typically the url will be something like
+ <code>http://my.dom.ain/mailman/admin/mylist</code>.
+
+<P>

+ Your Changes''.
+
+<P>
+</LI>
+<LI>Now go to your email and send a message to <code>mylist@my.dom.ain</code>.
+ Within a minute or two you should see your message reflected back to you
+ via Mailman.
+</LI>
+</UL>

+list. If you had any problems along the way, please see the
