They are.


>so I wrote both. But still when I try to create a new list ("./newlist x") and then dump the config, I still see generic_nonmember_action = 1. Why? What should I change?


Did you see my reply to your post at
<http://mail.python.org/pipermail/mailman-users/2007-April/056442.html>?

You can't set anything in mm_cfg.py that isn't already set in
Defaults.py. You can only override Defaults.py settings in mm_cfg.py.

Read Defaults.py, or if you've read it, read it again. The settings you
want are things like DEFAULT_GENERIC_NONMEMBER_ACTION,
DEFAULT_MSG_FOOTER, etc.

These are all described in Defaults.py.
