[ale] Setting up GNU Mailman?

[questy at gmail.com]

If we're talking about you, Bob, I'd say an hour.

The docs are stellar, cover several MTAs, and are easy to follow.

Essentially,

Extract
Edit config
Edit Apache config
Create first list
Paste aliases into aliases file
Restart Apache
Do the rest of the config via gui.

The last three I set up were over Sendmail +Apache, and the process was seamless.

Subject: [ale] Setting up GNU Mailman?

Has anyone set up GNU Mailman from scratch?  If so, about how long do
you estimate an experienced Linux SysAdmin would need to set it up, including
creating a few lists?

Can it handle attachments such as images and, blech, M$ word docs?  I
assume that it works well with Sendmail.

Thanks,
