Thanks for your mail, but i tried creating mailing-list on the command-line like this:
$: /mailman/bin/newlist --quiet Enter the name of the list: mylist Enter the email of the person running the list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Initial mylist password: Entry for aliases file:
## mylist mailing list ## created: 18-Jul-2003 root mylist: "|/mailman/mail/wrapper post mylist" mylist-admin: "|/mailman/mail/wrapper mailowner mylist" mylist-request: "|/mailman/mail/wrapper mailcmd mylist" mylist-owner: mylist-admin
Looks about right. Different than what I get, but it could be the version being run.
should i need to add the above three lines to my /etc/alaises ..??
Correct, although I count 4 lines.
If so any mail i address to 'mailman-owner' will be sent..??
The aliases intercept the mail and redirect it to the mail Mailman program. Where the owner mail goes will depend on the setting for the list. In this case owner is redirected to admin, which is redirected to the mail man wrapper and mailowner.
and also i didnt find the program 'newaliases'.
It is part of Linux, and on many (most?) systems it must be run after changes are made to the aliases file in order for the changes to be registered. Check the comments at the top of your /etc/aliases file for information.
