>Description:
The MESSAGE file for mailman doesn't mention the need to start
qrunner, resulting in a strangely dead mailman installation.
>How-To-Repeat:
"make install", follow instructions printed.
>Fix:
I would think the ideal thing would be to create an rc.d script
suitable for starting mailman. Here's a rough draft, adapted from
rc.d/rwho:
#!/bin/sh
#
# $NetBSD: rwho,v 1.6 2004/08/13 18:08:03 mycroft Exp $
#
# PROVIDE: mailman
# REQUIRE: DAEMON
# BEFORE: LOGIN

name="mailman"
rcvar=$name
command="/usr/sbin/mailmanctl"
