[Mailman-Developers] Mailman CVS works on OS X!

Just wanted to report that Mailman out of CVS works beautifully with Python 2.1.1 from the Fink porting project for OS X.

I was able to compile and install Mailman after creating a "mailman" user and group in NetInfo. The configure process had a few snags where it was confused about the local hostname (I was not on a network at the time) but it continued on, and built and installed no problem.

OS X comes with Apache, so I simply changed /etc/httpd/httpd.conf for the Mailman entries, ran /usr/local/mailman/bin/mailmanctl start, and was off and running.

Love that portable code!
