That said, configuring sendmail to work with Mailman consists of only
one or two steps.

1) Add the 10 aliases per Mailman list that are reported to you when
you create the list to /etc/aliases

2) If your sendmail uses smrsh, add the appropriate symlink to the
smrsh directory as discussed at
<http://www.list.org/mailman-install/node32.html>.

Also see the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/B4Au>.

Beyond that, there are ways to automate alias generation for sendmail
if you want. See the above FAQ and the one at
<http://wiki.list.org/x/joA9>.
