Mm-handler is definitely a cool idea. But it seems that once Mailman can update Sendmail's aliases immediately there is no need for mm-handler.

I need to test my understanding.  Is setting MTA to 'Postfix' supposed to cover the 'Sendmail' case with some changes or should there be a specific MTA file to cover Sendmail?

According to: https://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2004-June/037518.html it is just a matter of changing POSTFIX_ALIAS_CMD to something different.  I either missed the article or I didn't understand it the first time I looked at the docs.  This seems like it might be easier to maintain and setup than the mm-handler.  At least it is the way I would have chosen.

Mark, Thanks for the pointer!

I now realize that mm-handler would not be necessary if Mailman fully connected to Sendmail.  The Postfix connection looks very close.

Please elaborate on what you mean by "if Mailman fully connected to Sendmail".  Rather, how is Mailman not already connected to Sendmail via mm-handler?

Or is your goal to remove mm-handler and directly configure Mailman itself as what Sendmail refers to as a "Mailer"?
