+7 Create a site-wide mailing list +

+ +

+After you have completed the integration of Mailman and your mail server, you +need to create a ``site-wide'' mailing list. This is the one that password +reminders will appear to come from, and it is required for proper Mailman +operation. Usually this should be a list called mailman, but if you +need to change this, be sure to change the MAILMAN_SITE_LIST variable in +mm_cfg.py. You can create the site list with this command, following +the prompts: + +

+    % bin/newlist mailman
+

+ +

+Now configure your site list. There is a convenient template for a generic +site list in the installation directory, under data/sitelist.cfg which +can help you with this. You should review the configuration options in the +template, but note that any options not named in the sitelist.cfg file +won't be changed. + +

+The template can be applied to your site list by +running: + +

+    % bin/config_list -i data/sitelist.cfg mailman
+

+ +

+After applying the sitelist.cfg options, be sure you review the +site list's configuration via the admin pages. + +

+You should also subscribe yourself to the site list. + +
