Is there an active maintainer for Mailman?
The Available Ports listing lists "Maintained by: mps openmaintainer” - I do
not understand this description.
I need to ask a few questions about the MacPorts installation of Mailman, not
about Mailman itself.
For example:
1- How/where do the MacPorts installation of Mailman files map to the standard
GNU locations.
I can find some by trial and error, but others are not obvious.
The Mailman support group talks about the old OSX Server installation,
but not about the MacPorts version.
2- What configuration changes do I need to make to integrate it with the
MacPorts Apache2 server.
This is/may-be complicated by the fact that I point DocumentRoot to
the “Sites/htdocs” directory under my own ID, with links back to things like:
/opt/local/apache2/manual
/opt/local/www/phpmyadmin
I’m fairly certain that its something obvious I’m misinterpreting.
I’ve had the MacPorts Apache2/Mysqul/Php code running on my headless Mac mini
for quite some time now.
I have been asked to handle a mailing list of about 1000 names for my
retirement community.
The install seemed to go flawlessly. But . . .
Basically, I’m having issues getting Mailman to respond.
I believe that I should be getting it to respond to:
<hostname>/mailman/admin, but have not yet gotten it to work.
I have run into one comment that implies that an additional mime-type
entry is necessary.
The files:
/opt/local/share/doc/mailman/INSTALL
/opt/local/share/doc/mailman/README
are generic GNU files.
The only clues I find are in the MacPorts install log file.
I started off with: sudo port select --set python python27 - from the install
log.
# Be sure to verify the email and URL host settings in the Mailman
configuration file (they may have been guessed incorrectly during the
configuration step):
#
# /opt/local/share/mailman/Mailman/mm_cfg.py
They seem to be correct.
# Be sure to add the following line to your Apache httpd.conf configuration
file to enable Mailman web access:
#
# Include /opt/local/etc/httpd/mailman.conf
Done
# Be sure to set up the crontab entries for the 'mailman' user. Mailman runs a
number of cron jobs for its basic functionality.
#
# cd /opt/local/share/mailman/cron
# sudo crontab -u mailman crontab.in
Also done.

I am simply not getting the list maintenance interface to come up.
