Mailman

The website is designed so that you don't need to have mailman installed and configured if you are running in debug mode. If you do want to test mailman integration, the debian package is called "mailman", and it will make changes to mailman if you have it installed (even in debug mode). The "manage.py mailman_validate" and "manage.py mailman_import" functions are also useful for this scenario.
