Those docs are all very confusing to me... I still don't see how to fix this. My mm_cfg.py file has the following section: ################################################## # Put YOUR site-specific settings below this line. MTA = 'Postfix' DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'hostname.risd.edu' DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'hostname.risd.edu' It looks correct to me. I know I'm missing something though. I need Mailman for dummies. >>> Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> 3/23/2009 11:47 AM >>> … [View More]

Thank you Mark for your help explaining this. Great stuff! Jeff >>> Mark Sapiro <mark(a)msapiro.net> 3/23/2009 12:48 PM >>> Jeff, I see the problem. you have two lists named "dm" and "dm-admin", but LISTNAME-admin is one of the aliases created for every LISTNAME. Thus, you get dm-admin: "|/usr/share/mailman/mail/mailman admin dm" as the -admin address for the "dm" list and you get dm-admin: "|/usr/share/mailman/mail/mailman post dm-admin" as … [View More]

Therefore, I could have Mailman run on a separate web host or … [View More]
