Hello,

I think this how to is wrong, it aims to create aliases but using postfix-to.-mailman.py interface as transport is not needed.

Lines 7 and 8 of  /usr/lib/mailman/bin/postfix-to-mailman.py say:

"Does not require the creation of _any_ aliases to connect lists to your mail system."

Author: would you possibly be able to add the following note to save further users of this tutorial from the same pain I had?

Please note that in Ubuntu at least you need to run the following command to enable cgi, without which apache will not serve any of the mailman pages:

sudo a2enmod cgid

remark equivalent to that of M DW but for debian10:

sudo a2enmod cgid

is required

On Ubuntu, none of the vhosts will work, until you uncomment the following line in the /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default.conf file:

        ServerName www.example.com

and restart the service:

        $ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Kind of important or nothing works (using vhosts).
