Name : mailman Relocations: (not relocateable) Version : 2.1.1 Vendor: Red Hat, Inc. Release : 5 Build Date: Fri 23 Jan 2004 03:44:05 PM EST Install Date: (not installed) Build Host: daffy.perf.redhat.com Group : Applications/Internet Source RPM: mailman-2.1.1-5.src.rpm Size : 15977341 License: GPL Signature : DSA/SHA1, Tue 03 Feb 2004 04:33:24 PM EST, Key ID 219180cddb42a60e Packager : Red Hat, Inc. <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla> URL : http://www.list.org/ Summary : Mailing list manager with built in Web access. Description : Mailman is software to help manage email discussion lists, much like Majordomo and Smartmail. Unlike most similar products, Mailman gives each mailing list a webpage, and allows users to subscribe, unsubscribe, etc. over the Web. Even the list manager can administer his or her list entirely from the Web. Mailman also integrates most things people want to do with mailing lists, including archiving, mail <-> news gateways, and so on. When the package has finished installing, you will need to: * Run /var/mailman/bin/mmsitepass to set the mailman administrator password. * Edit /var/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py to customize mailman's configuration for your site. * Modify the sendmail configuration to ensure that it is running and accepting connections from the outside world (to ensure that it runs, set "DAEMON=yes" in /etc/sysconfig/sendmail, ensuring that it accepts connections from the outside world may require modifying /etc/mail/sendmail.mc and regenerating sendmail.cf), and * Add these lines: ScriptAlias /mailman/ /var/mailman/cgi-bin/ Alias /pipermail/ /var/mailman/archives/public/ <Directory /var/mailman/archives> Options +FollowSymlinks </Directory> to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf to configure your Web server. Users upgrading from previous releases of this package may need to move their data or adjust the configuration files to point to the locations where their data is.
