[Mailman-Users] sending html emails using mailman

[Juliann Mills]

I am a new systems administrator, (mailman was configured by the old  
sysadmin).  One of the list administrators want to send html emails..  
she says now that she is unable to do so now.  Here is what our config  
file looks like now.  What changes do I have to make to allow her to  
send html emails?

Thanks for your help!

"""This module contains your site-specific settings.

 From a brand new distribution it should be copied to mm_cfg.py.  If you
already have an mm_cfg.py, be careful to add in only the new settings  
you
want.  Mailman's installation procedure will never overwrite your  
mm_cfg.py
file.

The complete set of distributed defaults, with documentation, are in  
the file
Defaults.py.  In mm_cfg.py, override only those you want to change,  
after the

   from Defaults import *

line (see below).

Note that these are just default settings; many can be overridden via  
the
administrator and user interfaces on a per-list or per-user basis.
