Hi all,

Thank you for your responses, Stephen. Much appreciated. I have forwarded them 
to my friend. I don’t know if he is on this list, but I have recommended that 
he be, so we can get over whatever hump is getting in the way.

I used the instructions on the Mailman 3 site on my own attempt. 

The fact that the mangling will continue is a disappointment. I’m inclined to 
tell all my AOL and Yahoo users and others in the same boat to find another 
email service. The problem is that my MacOS users are getting tripped up by the 
mangling, as it is hidden by the mail clients. I have instructed them to remove 
previous recipients regularly from the list of such, if they contain the ‘via 
list’ string. But they don’t read my emails, and we see many embarrassing email 
ssent to the lists that are meant for one-on-one communication.

What is the best, easiest, guaranteed-to-work way to get this Mailman 3 up and 
running (OS, add-ons, options, etc.). When I tried myself, I saw a lot of 
options that I really did not really care to have because I did not know the 
consequences of each. I’m an application programmer, not a systems programmer.

Yours,

Allan Hansen
