Hi Team,
I want to change default settings (like "welcome message" to set to no) for the lists to create. How can i do that?
Thanks a lot Dieter Leupold

The simplest way is to patch mailman/styles/base.py. In some cases, a setting is defined in more than one class for different list styles.
The more complex way is to implement your own style with the settings you want and chose that when creating lists.

Hi Team,
still another question: are these settings lost in case of a version update?
Thank you very much Dieter Leupold

The short answer is probably yes. The longer answer depends on exactly how the changes were implemented.
In my case, I routinely update multiple servers from the HEADs of the GitLab branches. I keep all local mods as patch files and my update process basically gets the branch from GitLab and then applies all the local patches.
