There's no global option for this, but it's not particularly hard to
do, just a bit fiddly. I've done it with my lists, with only a few
false starts. The basic idea is to grep -i through all the config
files, templates and .py files looking for '<head'. Then edit the
file and plug in a style sheet, something like this:
<style type="text/css">
<!--
td {font-family: Helvetica}
th {font-family: Helvetica}
p {font-family: Helvetica}
h1 {font-family: Helvetica}
h2 {font-family: Helvetica}
h3 {font-family: Helvetica}
caption {font-family: Helvetica}
li {font-family: Helvetica}
ul {font-family: Helvetica}
ol {font-family: Helvetica}
dl {font-family: Helvetica}
div {font-family: Helvetica}
address {font-family: Helvetica}
body {background-attachment: fixed;font-family:Helvetica;}
-->
</style>
Once you make all the changes, restart Mailman for the changes to take effect.
It'd be nice to have an easier way, yes. We'd have to have a special
web page devoted to Mailman settings, not list settings. Threel ways
to organize such a meta-page would be: 1) on a per-machine basis; 2)
on a per-list basis; and 3) on a per-virtual-host basis.
Metta,
Ivan
