Hello again I apologize for not putting a subject line in my last post. I am having several issues one of which are below

I asked the question earlier (thank you Richard for helping me)
about having more then 1 domain to have mailing lists in)
he showed me where in defaults.py is the reference
for it and also in a FAQ

Now I am presuming you DON'T edit defaults.py
at all and do everything in mm-cfg.py?


Correct. If you make changes to Defaults.py it will work BUT they will be lost when you install a Mailman update. You site specific changes to mm_cfg.py are not lost on updates.


I have the below in my mm-cfg.py
and would like to know if this is correct

Thank you for everything



# Put YOUR site-specific settings below this line.
IMAGE_LOGOS ='/icons/'
DEFAULT_EMAIL_HOST = 'mail.test.com' DEFAULT_URL_HOST = 'list.tester.org'


VIRTUAL_HOSTS.clear()
add_virtualhost(listserv.test.com, mail.test.com)
 add_virtualhost(list.test1.com, mail.test.com)


PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL = '/pipermail'

The default for this is:

PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL = 'http://%(hostname)s/pipermail/%(listname)s'

why do you want to change it? But you need to ensure that an Alias directive(s) in in your Apache web server httpd.conf (or whatever) associates the /pipermail/ location with the correct file path, for instance:

Alias /pipermail/ /usr/local/mailman/archives/public/

PRIVATE_ARCHIVE_URL = '/usr/local/mailman/archives/private'


The standard default for this is:

DEFAULT_URL_PATTERN = 'http://%s/mailman/'

again, why do you want to change it?

But you need to ensure that the ScriptAlias directive(s) in in your Apache web server httpd.conf (or whatever) associates the /mailman/ location with the correct file path, for instance:

ScriptAlias /mailman/ /usr/local/mailman/cgi-bin/
