./newlist mailman Returns:
--------START QUOTE---------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/mailman/bin$ ./newlist mailman Enter the email of the person running the list: mailman-owner Initial mailman-system password: Create a new, unpopulated mailing list. Usage: ./newlist [options] [listname [listadmin-addr [admin-password]]] Options: -l language --language language Make the list's preferred language `language', which must be a two letter language code. -q/--quiet Normally the administrator is notified by email (after a prompt) that their list has been created. This option suppresses the prompt and notification. -h/--help Print this help text and exit. You can specify as many of the arguments as you want on the command line: you will be prompted for the missing ones. Every Mailman list has two parameters which define the default host name for outgoing email, and the default URL for all web interfaces. When you configured Mailman, certain defaults were calculated, but if you are running multiple virtual Mailman sites, then the defaults may not be appropriate for the list you are creating. You can specify the domain to create your new list in by spelling the listname like so: [EMAIL PROTECTED] where `www.mydom.ain' should be the base hostname for the URL to this virtual hosts's lists. E.g. with is setting people will view the general list overviews at http://www.mydom.ain/mailman/listinfo. Also, www.mydom.ain should be a key in the VIRTUAL_HOSTS mapping in mm_cfg.py/Defaults.py. It will be looked up to give the email hostname. If this can't be found, then www.mydom.ain will be used for both the web interface and the email interface. If you spell the list name as just `mylist', then the email hostname will be taken from DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST and the url will be taken from DEFAULT_URL (as defined in your Defaults.py file or overridden by settings in mm_cfg.py). Note that listnames are forced to lowercase.
