     - Set up the crontab entries.  Mailman runs a number of cron jobs

-    - Add aliases for `mailman' and `mailman-owner' to the system's
-      mail alias database.  These aliases should point to whoever is
-      ultimately responsible for the Mailman installation.  Here are
-      instructions for those running sendmail:
+    - Create a "site-wide" mailing list.  This is the one that
+      password reminders will appear to come from.  Usually this
+      should be the "mailman" mailing list, but if you need to change
+      this, be sure to change the MAILMAN_SITE_LIST variable in
+      mm_cfg.py (see below).

-             mailman: fred@flintstone.com
-             mailman-owner: mailman

-      If you don't run sendmail, consult the documentation of your
