>Is it possible to change the default settings for new mailing lists when you create them? For example, whenever I create new lists, send_welcome_msg and send_goodbye_msg are on by default. For our internal purposes, I don't want/need those messages going out so I keep turning them off. I've forgotten once or twice and that leads to "What's this email mean?".

Put

DEFAULT_SEND_WELCOME_MSG = No
DEFAULT_SEND_GOODBYE_MSG = No

in mm_cfg.py.

It would serve you well to read Defaults.py to find out what other
settings exist that you may find useful.
