5. Type a description of the purpose of the list (the list charter) in the Informational Message
field. When someone sends an e-mail message to the list alias with the word “info” in the
body of the message, this text is returned in the reply message.
The charter text is stored in the /data/majordomo/lists/listname.info file, where
listname is the name of the list you supplied in step 3.
6. Click on Submit.
The created list will be listname@hostname, where hostname is the host name of the local
system.
The Administration utility confirms on a separate page that the list has been created. A link to
the Modify Configuration Parameters form (see Section 5.2.2: Changing a Majordomo Mailing
List Configuration) is provided for your convenience.
5.2.2 Changing a Majordomo Mailing List Configuration
Using the Administration utility, you change the following parameters for a Majordomo mailing
list:
• List owner or charter (see Section 5.2.2.1: Changing List Owner or Charter)
• Administration parameters (see Section 5.2.2.2: Changing Administration Parameters)
• Subscription parameters (see Section 5.2.2.3: Changing Subscription Parameters)
• Message content parameters (see Section 5.2.2.4: Changing Message Content Parameters)
• Digest parameters (see Section 5.2.2.5: Changing Digest Parameters)
• Command access parameters (see Section 5.2.2.6: Changing Command Access Parameters)

• List restriction parameters (see Section 5.2.2.8: Changing List Restriction Parameters)
• Address processing parameters (see Section 5.2.2.9: Changing Address Processing Parameters)
In the following sections, the Majordomo tag that is associated with each field on these forms is
included. For each list, the tag and the value you specify are stored in the Majordomo configuration
file for that list. The list configuration files reside in the /data/majordomo/lists/ directory;
there is one configuration file per Majordomo list (listname.config). The configuration file
for a list is created the first time you change the list configuration.
