Mailman: User Guide for List Subscribers
Mailman is a web-based mail list manager, and should make it easier to subscribe to, and to be subscribed to, lists.
What is a mail list?
An email reflector is a list of email addresses with a name that is an email address. When someone sends mail to that name, all the addresses in the list receive the mail.
A mail list is like a reflector. It has an email address that distributes the mail sent to it to a list of subscribers, but a mail list under the control of a list manager is distinguished from a reflector by the addition of various management functions, such as:
a.. Limitation of posting to subscribers (or some other criteria) only
b.. Moderation of postings. A moderator can approve or disapprove each message to the list.
c.. Digesting. Rather than receive a stream of small emails, the subscriber receives, at a lower frequency, emails containing multiple messages to the list.
d.. Subscriber publication. The list administrator can make the list of subscribers available for public view.
e.. Archiving. All the messages sent to the list are collected and made available as web pages.
f.. Subscription suspension. A subscriber can choose to not receive mail for a period of time.
g.. Address change. A subscriber can change where he receives the mail from the list.
Getting information from the list server
The Mailman web interface allows you to visit a mail list server and find out about the lists that the server hosts. Keep in mind, however, that Mailman will not show you lists that the managers have opted to keep private. To access the mail server's directory of lists on mailman.qth.net go to: mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo
Every mail list on the server, both public and private, has its own mail list information page. When you go to the server's main list information page you will see a listing of the publicly available lists along with a brief description of each. To access the information page for a particular list (including subscription information and the list archives) just click on the name of the list. If you want to access a private list that is not advertised then you need to go directly to its information page using the following template:
http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/Name of the list
If, for example, you are trying to reach the Test list, you could either click on the list's name (on the page reached through the link above) or go to the URL
http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/test
It is important that you understand how to get to a mail list's information page, as that is the gateway through which all list features are accessed. When you join a list or are added to the list membership by the owner Mailman automatically sends you a note telling you the URL that you need to go to in order to access the information page. On most lists the list manager will also send you a monthly reminder with the URL of the information page. If you have difficulty finding the location of the information page for a particular list, you should contact the list owner.
