Mark,
Again, I can't thank you enough. The list(s) are up and running. I wouldn't have been able to get it to work had it not been for your help. I also want to thank those who responded either through the list or privately with helpful answers to my Unix-related questions. Your answers have helped me find my way around Unix and motivated me to further improve my understanding of it. There are a few things I still need to tweak and I thought I would ask you a few additional questions. I hope you don't mind. Question 1. I have created two additional lists for a total of three that I created plus one that Apple's own Server Admin requires (a list named Mailman). Using the web interface to check the lists hosted by my domain I find conflicting results. This is what I have: http://www.domain.com/mailman/listinfo List Description List 1 [no description available] List 2 [no description available] http://domain.com/mailman/listinfo List Description List 3 [no description available] List 4 [no description available] Shouldn't both www.domain.com and domain.com lead to the same results ? How can I make the necessary corrections so that both addresses are interchangeable and lead to the same results ? Question 2. As I made an attempt to create lists using the Mailman's web interface instead of Apple's Server Admin I couldn't get it done. Mailman kept returning an error message stating I didn't have permission to create lists. I tried numerous different passwords including the admin password for my server but it wouldn't work. What have I done wrong ? Thank you again for all your help.
