I have been subscribed to the MM-Users mailing list for a decade or more and have always found everybody to be quite helpful. Mark S. is the current maintainer and he routinely responds to posts. There are a handful of other frequent prolific helpers in the MM community too. Tell them what you're wanting to do, where you're wanting to do it (Gentoo vs Ubuntu) and they will help you with anything Mailman specific. They will probably try to answer more Gentoo specific questions, but may refer you back to a more Gentoo specific location (here) if things wonder too far from Mailman. E.e. they may only be able to offer limited help on Gentoo specific init scripts for Mailman. Go subscribe, and ask your questions. Note: I don't know if there is one common list or separate lists for MMv2 and MMv3. -- Grant. . . . unix || die

I will look into that one. I would like to use mailman, but it seems difficult and obscure. Thanks. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: How do you spend it?

My solution: I changed to mlmmj - http://mlmmj.org/ (available with Portage) - and everything works fine. Configuration is done by simple text files, and transferring the list members is just copy-and-paste. If you're not stuck to mailman, you could take this into consideration. -Matt
[gentoo-user] how to install mailman3 on gentoo
Hi. I have to convert my mailman2 to mailman3 because of the python business. I installed the appropriate packages, but their documentation as to how to set it up and upgrade mailman2 is quite inscrutible -- also it assumes ubunto and some strange python things such as installing in a virtual environment, and assumes postgresql which I might or might not want to do. Anyway, I have no idea what I am doing here, so if anyone has figured this out, I would appreciate some assistance. Thanks. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it.
