How to Install Schleuder on macOS

Schleuder is a PGP-enabled mailing list manager that can be used for secure communication. Here's how to install it on macOS:

1. Install GnuPG

Schleuder requires GnuPG to work properly. To install GnuPG, run the following command in your terminal:

brew install gnupg

2. Install Schleuder

To install Schleuder, run the following command in your terminal:

brew install schleuder

This will install the latest version of Schleuder on your system.

3. Configure Schleuder

After installing Schleuder, you will need to create a directory for Schleuder to store its configuration files. The default location is /usr/local/etc/schleuder.

To create this directory, run the following command in your terminal:

sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/etc/schleuder

Next, you'll need to generate a configuration file for Schleuder. To do this, run the following command:

sudo schleuder-keygen > /usr/local/etc/schleuder/schleuder.conf

This will generate a configuration file at /usr/local/etc/schleuder/schleuder.conf.

4. Start Schleuder

To start Schleuder, run the following command in your terminal:

sudo schleuder --daemon --config=/usr/local/etc/schleuder/schleuder.conf

This will start Schleuder in daemon mode, using the configuration file you generated earlier.

5. Create a Mailing List

To create a mailing list using Schleuder, run the following command in your terminal:

sudo schleuder --create-list mylist@example.com --config=/usr/local/etc/schleuder/schleuder.conf

This will create a new mailing list with the email address mylist@example.com.

That's it! You've now installed and configured Schleuder on your macOS system. You can now use it to securely manage your mailing lists.
