maybe this will help #How I did the mailing list rev 19 March 2007
yum install httpd mailman # created the admin list bin/newlist mailman # passworded it bin/mmsitepass rotag#90 configged mm_cfg.py: DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'listserv.qwik.net' DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'listserv.qwik.net' configged postfix: mydestination = $myhostname, localhost, listserv.qwik.net // need this since hostname is mail2.qwik.net created a list called 'test2' made the aliases: ## test mailing list test2: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman post test2" test2-admin: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin test2" test2-bounces: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces test2" test2-confirm: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm test2" test2-join: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join test2" test2-leave: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave test2" test2-owner: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner test2" test2-request: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman request test2" test2-subscribe: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman subscribe test2" test2-unsubscribe: "|/usr/lib/mailman/mail/mailman unsubscribe test2" Mailman and Xerxes Create the required domain.tld in Xerxes. Create a Xerxes user name for each user name in the Mailman alias file. Forward the Xerxes user names, on a 1:1 basis to the list server. (make certain that the configuration file in the list server includes itself as a fully qualified destination ( i.e. listserv.domain.tld) Mailman, Xerxes, and DNS Create a DNS record that points the list server to the proper host. For example: listserv.newdomain.tld IN CNAME listname.domain.tld -or- listserv.newdomain.tld IN A 10.1.2.3 The listserv in this case is NOT a public mail server and requires no MX record. If desired, make certain that your target audience can see port 80 on the host: listserv.newdomain.tld. This allows users to access the web GUI. _______________________________________________ This mailing list is hosted and supported by bit-heads GmbH | http://www.bit-heads.ch _______________________________________________ Web-cyradm mailing list Web-cyradm@web-cyradm.org http://www.web-cyradm.org/mailman/listinfo/web-cyradm
