You should do these steps using the account you installed Mailman
under in section 2 above.
The file $prefix/Mailman/Defaults.py contains a number of
defaults for your installation. If any of these are incorrect,
override them in $prefix/Mailman/mm_cfg.py, NOT
INDefaults.py! See the comments in
Defaults.py for details. Once a list is created,
editing many of these variables will have no effect (you need to
configure your lists through the web admin interface or through
the command line script bin/config_list).
Specifically check to make sure the variables
DEFAULT_HOST_NAME and DEFAULT_URL are
correct. The latter must end in a slash.
The install process will not overwrite an existing
mm_cfg.py file so you can freely make changes to
this file.
Note: Do not change HOME_DIR or
MAILMAN_DIR. These are set automatically by the
configure script.
Create the site password using:
$prefix/bin/mmsitepass your-site-password
This password can be used anywhere that individual user or
mailing list administrator passwords are required, giving the
mailman site administrator the ability to adjust these things
when necessary.
