When you ran the "newlist" command, it should have generated a list of aliases, formatted exactly for the aliases file. Did "newlist" generate this output on your system? If so, any particular reason why you ignored it? I'm not trying to be snide, I'm just wondering if there's some way this step could be improved -- there are many many queries every week with people who ignore the alias-creation step, and I'm wondering why. As far as I know, there's nothing in the output of "newlist" that says alias-creation is optional. :-) --Jeremy ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ This message was sent to: archive@jab.org Unsubscribe or change your options at http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org
