<h3>Mailman Documentation</h3>

On-line documentation for Mailman 2.1 is still under construction, but
is organized among the following audiences:

<ul>
<li><a href="users.html"><b>Users</b></a> -- anybody who is a member
    of a mailing list managed by Mailman.  This documentation explains
    how you can subscribe and unsubscribe from mailing lists, how to
    change your personal options, and how to interact with other parts
    of the Mailman system.

<p><li><a href="admins.html"><b>List Managers</b></a> -- anybody who
    is a list administrator or moderator for a mailing list.  This
    documentation goes into all the gory details about how to set up
    your lists, what the various options mean and control, and how to
    manage the membership of your mailing list.

<p><li><a href="site.html"><b>Site Administrators</b></a> -- anybody
    who is setting up a Mailman site.  This documentation contains all
    the information about installing Mailman, integrating it with your
    mail and web servers, setting list defaults, configuring virtual
    domains, and enabling various options for your list
    administrators.  This documentation also gives some hints on how
    to tune Mailman for optimal performance.

<p><li><a href="i18n.html"><b>Translators</b></a> -- anybody who is
    contributing to internationalization support for Mailman.  This
    describes contact addresses for the current language champions and
    tells you what you need to do if you want to contribute a new
    language translation to the project (more are always welcome!).
</ul>
