RHEL 7 + Mailman 3 : Need help and guidance
Hi,
We would like to use the latest Mailman 3 in our environment. We are planning to set up RHEL 7 virtual machine. I am trying to figure out best method (if possible - step-by-step guide) for installing and configuring Mailman3 on RHEL 7 .
Can someone please provide me some guidance or point me in direction.
Thank you.

You will need Python 3.5 or newer(preferably, 3.6+, since 3.5 is no longer maintained) in order to install Mailman3. I am not entirely sure if it is available on RHEL 7, but you can definitely install it from EPEL.
There aren't any maintained RPMs that we know of, so you may have to do a manual install from PyPI packages.
Here1 is a document describing the installation steps for Mailman packages in a virtual environment.
Can someone please provide me some guidance or point me in direction.
Thank you.

Thank you so much for the guidance. We ended up installing version 2.1.15 on RHEL7 using yum. We don't want mailing lists' email addresses with the same domain as the server has. For example: server is example1.fdu.edu . We would like to have email addresses of the mailing lists to end with @fdu.edu so that someone sends email to list1@fdu.edu and the subscribers of the the mailing list list1 will receive it. Can you please provide us some guidance on how can we accomplish this?
Thank you again for your help.
HI @vghandi,
I found this guide extremely helpful. I relied on it heavily for my own newbie installation of Mailman 3, and as a result I am up and running fine.

This is not the list for Mailman 2.1 questions. Please join the mailman-users@python.org list at <https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users> and post your request there.
Also note that while the RHEL7 package for Mailman may be 2.1.15, that version is 7 years old and the current release is 2.1.29. You may wish to install from source - <https://www.list.org/mailman-install/>.
