Thank you. I finished most of the configuration of the combination of
apache, sendmail and Mailman.

I built an mailing list named 'jive-list', and one site-wide list
named 'Mailman'. I invite some users to the jive-list, and the users
belong to local unix account can receive the invitations, but the
external email address can not receive them.

The invitation received by local unix users shown as (sorry it's a little long):

Does it seem that my configuration ok?

By the way, I didn't know how to configure my Solaris Unix to enable
the network. Do I need to create and edit /etc/resolv.conf, /etc/hosts
or some other files. How to write them? Followings are my Windows
machine settings in a LAN (My Solaris machine installed on a VMware
which contain the Mailman, sendmail and apache).

Default gateway      : 192.168.1.1
Preferred DNS server : 192.168.1.3
Alternate DNS server : 192.168.1.1

Thank you.
