| If you are fine with using the main `hcoop.net` web site for your list's web interface, then you're done. If not, then you can enable it for your own web site by doing the following. For the sake of a concrete example, we'll assume your domain is `me.com`, your mailing list is `list@me.com`, and you want the Mailman web interface to be at `www.me.com`. | If you are fine with using the main hcoop.net site for your list adminstration then there is nothing left to do except wait for the list to be created. If you would like the list admin to be at your own domain (perhaps so that the links in the list footers work) then you must do some simple domain configuration. |

| * Write `www.me.com` to `/etc/domains/com/me/.mailman`. * Place the `Mailman` directive in the VirtualHostConfiguration at `/etc/domains/com/me/www`. |
''LISTNAME'' is the name you gave your list, ''DOMAIN'' is your domain, and ''TLD'' is the TLD (org, com, name, ...) of your domain, ''VHOST'' is the virtual subdomain you would like the interface to be accesible from. If you want to access the site from your domain with no subdomain then use the default virtual host for ''VHOST''. |

| If you're wondering why I'm talking about a web site here, then you should familiarize yourself with [http://www.list.org/ Mailman]. Everything beyond sending and receiving normal messages is done with a web interface (though most if not all of these functions can also be done through email as with majordomo and other older mailing list solutions). If you would prefer some other list software that does things differently, you're out of luck for now. You might be able to install and maintain your own per-user copy, though. | * Write `VHOST.DOMAIN` to `/etc/domains/TLD/DOMAIN/.mailman` * Place the `Mailman` directive in the VirtualHostConfiguration at `/etc/domains/TLD/DOMAIN/VHOST`. * Run domtool Now the list admin will be available at http://VHOST.DOMAIN/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/LISTNAME. |
Before continuing with this page, you probably want to read DomainTool to learn the basics of how we handle shared daemon configuration.
If you would like a mailing list managed by our global [http://www.list.org/ Mailman] installation you must first [https://members.hcoop.net/portal/list place a request on the portal]. You then have a choice between doing list management at at [http://hcoop.net/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/LISTNAME http://hcoop.net/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/''LISTNAME], or at your own domain. If you are fine with using the main hcoop.net site for your list adminstration then there is nothing left to do except wait for the list to be created. If you would like the list admin to be at your own domain (perhaps so that the links in the list footers work) then you must do some simple domain configuration. Write VHOST.DOMAIN to /etc/domains/TLD/DOMAIN/.mailman Place the Mailman directive in the VirtualHostConfiguration at /etc/domains/TLD/DOMAIN/VHOST. Now the list admin will be available at http://VHOST.DOMAIN/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/LISTNAME.
