Questions about Mailman

Hi all, I have virtualmin 1.782 on a debian jessie. I notice that creating a new virtualhost, there's not the possibility the enable Mailman module even tough mailman it's installed.

aptitude search mailman
p   gforge-lists-mailman
i   mailman
p   mailman-api
i   webmin-virtualmin-mailman

Could you help me understanding how to enable it?

Thank you.

Howdy,

What happens when trying to enable Mailman? Do you receive an error of some kind?

Can you send an image about the problem when you try to run mailman? If it's about a mailman list, you have to create it on Webmin>Servers>Mailman

Thank you for your answer. I expected to mange mailman in the virtualmin section. I went on webmin/servers/virtluammin mailman mailing lists and created the mailman mailing list. I got an error about a missing directory: I had to 'mkdir /var/lock/mailman'. So my first question has already been answered :-)

My goal is to have a subdomain (lists.mydomain.it) to use with mailman. The reason is that the e-mail for 'mydomain.it' are managed by another mailserver (so it has a different mx record). But I with to manage mailing lists with virtualmin, so I need another mx record associated with a sub domain.

Right now I have two problems:

mailman asked me to create a list named 'mailman'. As mention before I got an error during that procedure. Right now the 'mailman' list exist but is associated with no domain. (I don't know if that may be a problem or not).
In the section 'add mailing list' I can't select the sub-domain, only the primary ones.
