Hi,

I am trying to add a new test list to my Mailman, but it doesn't seem to
be working. I have installed mailman in "/var/lib/mailman" and I am using
following command:

$/var/lib/mailman/bin/newlist test y.talekar at mydomain.com test123

But it failed saying "Illegal list name: test at ihqm001a1"

Since my hostname is different than my actul DNS name. I thought I need to
define domain as well so I also tried this command:

$/var/lib/mailman/bin/newlist test at mydomain.com y.talekar at mydomain.com
test123

But it again fails saying "Illegal list name: test at ihqm001a1"
