What version of Mailman are you running? If version 2.1 then you can run ~mailman/bin/genaliases and that will create ~mailman/data/aliases which contains all the aliases needed for your existing Mailman lists (creation of new lists will also be automagically added).
I'm confused by this. When I run bin/genaliases, it shows all of the aliases (which I can redirect to a file), but it doesn't automatically create or update any files in /usr/local/mailman/data/
My system is working fine (I currently just added the aliases to sendmail's /etc/aliases file), but I'm wondering if something is wrong or if I am just misunderstanding something. I have RedHat 7.3, Sendmail, and Mailman 2.1 installed from source.
Also a previous message mentioned that this information was in the INSTALL file, but I didn't see anything there.
