I must have missed your earlier questions in the month. I have been on
the road.

The setttings that are referred to for setting up a  Mailman maillist
in Satchmo are in the Site Settings page that you get to from the
admin panels. usual found at http://yourdomainhere/settings/

In the admin Site Settings page under the Newsletter settings I have
selected Mailman from the drop down. and then have put the name of the
mail-list and the slug.

In my settings.py file I only have satchmo_ext.newsletter', activated
I do not have #'satchmo_ext.newsletter.mailman', active. And looking
at my database tables for the livesettings, it is calling the
satchmo_ext.newsletter.mailman. I believe that once I had selected the
mailman option and saved it brought up the fields for entering the
maillist and its slug.

I found the biggest keys to getting it working was to get Mailman
working first. Setup of that will be dependant on what OS you are
running and what your mail server is. One thing that helped a lot with
the Mailman setup was creating a subdomian for it to run from.
Otherwise you run a risk of it taking over all the mail of the domain.
so I created a http://maillists.yourdomainhere so that when I setup a
maillist for my Satchmo site the slug became 
http://maillists.yourdomainhere.com/mailman/listinfo
and all the emails would show that they came from
maillists.yourdomainhere.

For installing Mailman I highly recommend using the one that comes
with your systems repository. I'm running a Red hat Federa server and
while the Mailman that is in their repository is a few versions back.
Using Yum or Apt-get to manage and install the package worked a lot
smoother. I had tried to manually install the most recent version, and
had no end of trouble getting it to integrate with my mail Server.

You can find a very detailed install info here:
http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman-install/index.html
especially section 6 Setting up your Mail Server. And then the
following stuff about getting the mailing list working. Once Mailman
is up and running and you have created your lists, Satchmo integrated
with it very well for me. Up until I mad Mailmand working was another
story.

Hope this helps. If you have more questions I'll do what I can to
remember what worked for me with getting it running.
