[Mailman-Users] Possibly foolish newbie question

[Perry Lynch]

Hello group!

I am attempting to make the switch from a sendmail/majordomo environment to 
a postfix/mailman solution.  At this point, postfix is working well for 
normal SMTP, and I believe that I have Mailman configured close to 
correctly.  However, I think I have some permissions issues to work out.  I 
can create lists, but they simply don't get added to /etc/aliases. I can 
subscribe members to the lists, but cannot post to the list.

I love not knowing all that I need to about this stuff - the opportunity to 
learn is EVER-present.

Is it possible that a knowledgeable System Admin, who is running 
postfix/Mailman, would take pity on a new user and share an example of what 
the permissions should look like for the various directories?

I'm running Mandrake 7.2, with Postfix from the distro CD, and Mailman 2.02

I've read the manual, and it all seemed pretty straight-forward, yet I 
still messed it up.  I would really appreciate any help/advice/comments 
that you can give. Even the RTFM ones!

Thanks
Perry
