+Mailing List Creation
+---------------------
+
+Project admins can create mailing lists using the normal savannah
+web interface: project area `Mailing Lists`, then `Configure`.
+
+The list name must be one of PROJECTNAME-[\*], or PROJECTNAME, or
+{bug,info,help}-PROJECTNAME. For exceptions, open a support request
+(but let's avoid exceptions unless they are absolutely necessary).
