When I click on the create list button I get this error below. I couldn't find in in the FAQ and the archives listed was a bad link. What is set wrong? But if I log in as mailman and run the command line utilities to create the mailing list there aren't any problems. Bug in Mailman version 2.1.2 We're sorry, we hit a bug! If you would like to help us identify the problem, please email a copy of this page to the webmaster for this site with a description of what happened. Thanks!

You just have to set proper permissions to /var/spool/mailman/data/aliases. You have a file-persmission problem, that`s all.

[ mailman-Bugs-753343 ] Admin interface should follow manager lang preferences

The maillist admin interface should appear in the list manager user language preference, instead of appearing in the maillist default language. I have my mailling in brazilian portuguese, but the translation text isn't as good as the original english one. It's easier to understand the english text. Sometimes to decide about some preference I have to temporarily change the list to english, select my preference, and then turn it back to portuguese. If the manager interface followed my user lang preference, it wouldn't be necessary. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=100103&aid=753343&group_i…
