Greetings-

I am trying to find out if Mailman can be installed on a 1&1 Business level 
Shared Linux hosting package.

I have discovered such things as this:
http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg34897.html

Which makes it sound like since 1&1 has separated servers into Web / Mail / 
Database that it is not possible to install Mailman. That makes Mailman sound 
like it is intended for servers smaller than a 
$10 per month plan... or dedicated which is out of the budget.

We have shell access.
We can set up cron jobs.
I know the hostname to an internal SMTP that does not require authentication to 
connect to it. (Useful for things like setting up an email list server.)

I guess I am a bit bewildered by such posts (like the above URL) as I have 
managed to dig up. Along with...

Steps in the installation that speak of a requirement to add a user and a group:
http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node4.html

Changing group ownership of the directory:
http://www.list.org/mailman-install/create-install-dir.html

Can I not just skip those steps since this is a shared hosting environment?

Please advise.
