doesn't matter too much where you install it - no-one has written a
contrib for it yet.   If you plan to it might be good to nest it under
/home/e-smith, but I think it will work elsewhere

incoming mail is handled by qmail -it's at that level that the domain has
to be set - i.e. make sure you have added the relevent domains to virtual
domains in the management console.

qmail will then look for an appropriate user/mailbox/alias  - if there is
a match for user-name with listname it will be piped to the list.   This
is the basic job of the mlm afterall, so if it's not doing this it isn't
installed correctly.
