If Mailman is installed and everything is working, then you create a new
list (you can do this from the web-interface in version 2.1).
log directly into your server and type:

This will print out a list of aliases that need to be
copied into the /etc/aliases
That being the case, check out FAQ 3.14 which covers the most common
