[Mailman-Users] Site-Wide list

[Paul Kleeberg]

Could someone help me understand the purpose for creating the site-wide list titled "Mailman"? From the INSTALL instructions, end of section 4:

    - Create a "site-wide" mailing list.  This is the one that
      password reminders will appear to come from.  Usually this
      should be the "mailman" mailing list, but if you need to change
      this, be sure to change the MAILMAN_SITE_LIST variable in
      mm_cfg.py (see below).

          % bin/newlist mailman

      Follow the prompts, and see the README file for more
      information.

    - You should then subscribe yourself to the mailman list.

I could not find more info about this in the read-me file or in the documentation. I assume:

* I hide the list
* Use the umbrella list settings to have the password reminders sent to the owner

Is there more I should know? Do I need to use this list for anything? I am starting from scratch from 2.1 and have not used another version of Mailman before.
