Administering Mailing Lists
Mailing lists can be administered by designated list members, called list administrators
or list managers. List administrators can add or remove subscribers and can designate
other list administrators. List administrators can also designate list moderators, who
have limited administrative privileges. They can’t change list options, but they can
approve or reject subscription requests and postings.
Mailman uses a web interface and mail-based administration. Web services must be
enabled to access the web interface. Dozens of conguration options are available for
Mailman mailing lists that are not accessible using Server Admin.
The Web-based administration interface is found at server.domain.tld/mailman/listinfo.
Information and access to a specic list is found at server.domain.tld/mailman/listinfo/
listname.
For documentation of these functions for users, list administrators, and server
administrators, see www.list.org/docs.html.
