Normally, with sendmail, you should have MTA = 'Manual' from
Defaults.py and this should not be changed in mm_cfg.py.

With MTA = 'Manual' whenever you create a list, whether via web or via
bin/newlist, the list of required aliases is displayed for you. The
same information is also emailed to the owner of the site list
(usually mailman-owner at ...), but of course if the proper aliases have
not been installed for this list, that mail can't be delivered.

See the entire thread beginning at
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2006-January/048597.html>
for some examples of what a set of aliases should look like.
