-Mailman is multilingual and internationalized, meaning you can set up
-your list so that members can interact with it in any of a number of
-natural languages. Of course, Mailman won't translate list
-postings. :)
-
-<P>
-However, if your site administrator has enabled its support, you can
-set your list up to support any of about two dozen languages, such as
-German, Italian, Japanese, or Spanish. Your list members can then
-choose any of your supported languages as their <i>preferred
-language</i> for interacting with the list. Such things as their member
-options page will be displayed in this language. Each mailing list
-also has its own <i>preferred language</i> which is the language the
-list supports if no other language context is known.
-
-<P>
-These variables control the language settings for your mailing list:
-
-<P>
-<DL>
-<DT><STRONG>preferred_language</STRONG></DT>
-<DD>This is the list's preferred language, which is the language that
- the list administrative pages will be displayed in. Also any
- messages sent to the list owners by Mailman will be sent in this
- language. This option is presented as a drop-down list containing
- the language enabled in the <code>available_languages</code> variable.
-
-<P>
-</DD>
-<DT><STRONG>available_languages</STRONG></DT>
-<DD>This set of checkboxes contains all the natural languages that
- your site administrator has made available to your mailing lists.
- Select any language that you'd either like your members to be able
- to view the list in, or that you'd like to be able to use in your
- list's <code>preferred_language</code> variable.
<P>
-</DD>
-<DT><STRONG>encode_ascii_prefixes</STRONG></DT>
-<DD>If your mailing list's preferred language uses a non-ASCII
- character set and the <code>subject_prefix</code> contains non-ASCII
- characters, the prefix will always be encoded according to the
- relevant standards. However, if your subject prefix contains only
- ASCII characters, you may want to set this option to <i>Never</i>
- to disable prefix encoding. This can make the subject headers
- slightly more readable for users with mail readers that don't
- properly handle non-ASCII encodings.
+The <em>Membership Management</em> category is unlike the other
+administrative categories. It doesn't contain configuration variables
+or list settings. Instead, it presents a number of pages that allow
+you to manage the membership of you list. This includes pages for
+subscribing and unsubscribing members, and for searching for members,
+and for changing various member-specific settings.
<P>
-Note however, that if your mailing list receives both encoded and
- unencoded subject headers, you might want to choose <i>As
- needed</i>. Using this setting, Mailman will not encode ASCII
- prefixes when the rest of the header contains only ASCII
- characters, but if the original header contains non-ASCII
- characters, it will encode the prefix. This avoids an ambiguity
- in the standards which could cause some mail readers to display
- extra, or missing spaces between the prefix and the original
- header.
-</DD>
-</DL>
+More details on membership management are described in the Membership
+Management section.
