[MM3-users] Installation - creating the mailman.cfg permissions

Mark Dale via Mailman-users writes:

Although the instructions say to create the file as user "mailman", should it be created by root (with/without virtualenv?) and then chown to "mailman"?

Yes. Since the file is created with a text editor, whether you're in a virtual environment or not is irrelevant (unless your preferred text editor is installed only in the virtual environment).

I guess that's an oversight in the documentation. Thanks for the report.
