mailman-2.1.4-2.3.100mdk.i586.rpm

Mandrake RPM packaging specific post-install notes:

Clean Install:

There are 3 things you need to do post-install before using mailman:

1) You must 'cd /usr/lib/mailman/; ./bin/mmsitepass' as root to set the
site password to be used for administrating all Mailman data as necessary.

2) You must also 'cd /usr/lib/mailman/; su -c "./bin/newlist mailman" mail' 
as root to setup the base mailman maillist - answer the questions appropriately.

3) You should then issue the command 'service mailman start' as root to start 
the server.

Migration:

If you are migrating old lists to the new version, under postfix, the aliases 
db should reside under /var/lib/mailman/data, owned by mail.mail.
