Hi all,
I'm a serious newbie to Mailmain, but I've worked through most of my installation and basic configuration issues to get it up an running. I do need some clarification regarding announcement lists. The instructions tell me to create a new directory:
"In Mailman 2.1.x you can customize the welcome message. Create a directory lists/<yourlist>/en (assuming English :) and copy templates/subscribeack.txt to this directory. Then edit this file for your specific wording. Mailman will use this specialized template for the English welcome messages."
I'm assuming that this directory is in the root of the /usr/lib/Mailman/ directory. Is this correct? I've created the following directory structure: /usr/lib/mailman/Lists/XXXX-high-school-announcements/en and copied over the subscribeack.txt file. I've edited the subscribeack.ext file to reflect what I want the welcome message to say, but it doesn't seem to be working. I think I need to configure Mailman to use the new template, but I couldn't find any such instructions.
Am I missing something?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks, David
