-2.7.1 Subscription rules</A>
-</H3>
-
-<P>
-This subcategory controls the rules for exposing the existance of this
-list, and for what new members must do in order to subscribe to the
-list.
-
-<P>
-<DL>
-<DT><STRONG>advertised</STRONG></DT>
-<DD>This option controls whether this list will show up in the list
- overview for the site. Normally, an overview contains the name
- and short description of every mailing list in the virtual
- domain. By setting this variable to <em>No</em>, it will not show
- up in this overview, nor will it show up in the administrative
- overview. The only way then to find the list is to guess (or
- know!) its name.
-
-<P>
-</DD>
-<DT><STRONG>subscribe_policy</STRONG></DT>
-<DD>This option controls the steps that a new member must take to join
- the list. The available options may differ based on some defaults
- that the site administrator chooses. They are:
-
-<P>
-
-<UL>
-<LI>None - No verification is done on the subscribing
- member. This is also called <em>open subscriptions</em> and is
- generally disabled by default. The site administrator must
- allow list admins to choose this option; if not, this option
- will not be presented to you.
-
-<P>
-</LI>
-<LI>Confirm - An email confirmation step is required before the
- address is added to the list. When a member requests
- subscription, either via the web page or by sending a
- message to <var>yourlist</var><code>-join@example.com</code>, Mailman
- will send a confirmation message to the requesting address.
- This mail-back confirmation contains a unique identifier,
- which the requester can present to Mailman in order to
- confirm their subscription. This can be done either by
- replying to the mail-back, or by visiting the url in the
- mail-back message. The url points to a page that lets the
- user either discard or confirm their request.
-
-<P>
-</LI>
-<LI>Require approval - All subscription requests are held for
- approval of the list moderator. No mail-back confirmation
- is sent, but the list admins will recieve a message
- indicating that approval is pending.
-
-<P>
-</LI>
-<LI>Confirm and approve - Here, a mail-back notice must first
- be confirmed by the requester. Once confirmed, the list
- moderator must then approve the request. This is the most
- secure method for users to subscribe since it both verifies
- the requesting address, and forces the list moderators to
- approve the request.
-
-<P>
-</LI>
-</UL>
-
-<P>
-</DD>
-<DT><STRONG>unsubscribe_policy</STRONG></DT>
-<DD>Specifies whether the list moderator's approval is required for
- unsubscription requests. <em>No</em> is highly recommended, since
- it is exceedingly impolite to not allow people to leave a mailing
- list whenever they want (i.e. opt-out). <em>Yes</em> is useful in
- some specialized contexts; e.g. you may not want to allow
- employees to unsubscribe from the company newsletter.
-
-<P>
-</DD>
-<DT><STRONG>ban_list</STRONG></DT>
-<DD>This contains a list of addresses (or regular expressiosn), one
- per line, that are banned from ever subscribing to your mailing
- list. If a match occurs during the subscription process, the
- request will be automatically rejected, and the requester will get
- a rejection notice. You can use this to permanently ban
- troublesome posters to a members-only list.
-
-<P>
-</DD>
-<DT><STRONG>private_roster</STRONG></DT>
-<DD>This specifies who is allowed to view the roster of member
- addresses. If you choose <em>Anyone</em>, then the list membership
- is completely public. You can limit exposure of the roster to
- just list members, or just to the list administrators. In the
- former case, a user must enter a valid member's address and
- password before they can view the roster. In the latter case, a
- list administrator's password must be enter; if a matching admin
- password is entered, address field is ignored.
-
-<P>
-</DD>
-<DT><STRONG>obscure_addresses</STRONG></DT>
-<DD>Controls whether some simple obfuscation of addresses is used when
- member addresses are included on web pages. This should reduce
- the opportunity for email address harvesting by spammers, although
- it probably doesn't eliminate it.
-</DD>
