[Mailman-Users] setup

2001-12-10 Thread A1800service


I need some setup help with mailmain...

I started off by unpacking it:

tar mailman.tar.gz and it created:

/home/business/mailman-2.0.7

it seems to have set the files up and all, now what
do i do?  can someone provide links so how i
can get into configuration...etc..etc...

some detailed instructions would be appreciated
on the next fews steps that i need to take in
order for this to work with my domain...

Thank-You

 read the files called INSTALL, README.x and FAQ in the directory that 
 was un-gzipped and un-tarred. INSTALL explains how to configure and install 
 Mailman.
  

I already went over some of it, i just do not understand... 
I have noticed, that it did not unpack like it supposed too...
it was supposed to create in /home/business/mailman
but instead it made:

/home/business/mailman-2.0.7

can you supply me a command line that will unpak
it into the correct directory... 

Thanks

[Mailman-Users] mailman setup

2001-12-10 Thread A1800service


Add a new user called `mailman'.  Typically this is added to
  your /etc/passwd file.  If username `mailman' is already in use,
  choose something else unique and see the --with-ownername flag
  below.

how how do i add user called mailman?  

/etc/passwd  belongs to the system, something
i do not have access too..

 Mailman integrates with your system.  If you cannot access /etc/password,
 then you will need to involve the sysadmin of the system you attempting
 installation on. 

Can someone refer me to a low cost server that would set this up?
my server admin refuses to setup any devices that has anything 
to do with mass mail or safelists, etc..etc..includes mailman script.
