A list owner is allowed to change -various settings of the list, such as the privacy and archiving -policies, the content filtering settings, etc. The list owner is also -allowed to subscribe or invite members, unsubscribe members, and -change any member's subscription options. +Every mailing list is also accessible by a number of web pages. Note +that the exact urls is configurable by the site administrator, so they +may be different than what's described below. We'll describe the most +common default configuration, but check with your site administrator +or hosting service for details. + +<P> +Mailman provides a set of web pages that list members use to get +information about the list, or manage their membership options. There +are also list archive pages, for browsing an online web-based archive +of the list traffic. These are described in more detail in the GNU +Mailman user's manual. <P> -The list moderator on the other hand, is only allowed to approve or -reject postings and subscription requests. The list moderator can -also do things like clear a member's moderation flag, or add an -address to a list of approved non-member posters. +Mailman also provides a set of pages for configuring an individual +list, as well as a set of pages for disposing of posting and +subscription requests. <P> -Normally, the list owner and list moderator are the same person. In -fact, the list owner can always do all the tasks a list moderator can -do. Access to both the owner's configuration pages, and the -moderation pages are protected by the same password. However, if the -list owner wants to delegate posting and subscription approval -authority to other people, a separate list moderator password can be -set, giving moderators access to the approval pages, but not the -configuration pages. In this setup, list owners can still moderate -the list, of course. +For a mailing list called <var>mylist</var> hosted at the domain +<var>lists.example.com</var>, you would typically access the administrative +pages by going to <code>http://lists.example.com/mailman/admin/mylist</code>. +The first time you visit this page, you will be presented with a login +page, asking for the list owner's password. When you enter the +password, Mailman will store a session cookie in your browser, so you +don't have to re-authenticate for every action you want to take. This +cookie is stored only until you exit your browser. <P> -In the sections that follow, we'll often use the terms list owner and -list administrator interchangably, meaning both roles. When -necessary, we'll distinguish the list moderator explicitly. +To access the administrative requests page, you'd visit +<code>http://lists.example.com/mailman/admindb/mylist</code> (note the +<em>admindb</em> url as opposed to the <em>admin</em> url). Again, the +first time you visit this page, you'll be presented with a login page, +on which you can enter either the list moderator password or the list +owner password. Again, a session cookie is dropped in your browser. +Note also that if you've previously logged in as the list owner, you +do not need to re-login to access the administrative requests page. <P> <DIV CLASS="navigation"> -<p><hr> +<div class='online-navigation'> +<p></p><hr /> <table align="center" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2"> <tr> -<td><A HREF="node5.html"><img src="../icons/previous.gif" - border="0" height="32" - alt="Previous Page" width="32"></A></td> -<td><A HREF="node4.html"><img src="../icons/up.gif" - border="0" height="32" - alt="Up One Level" width="32"></A></td> -<td><A HREF="node7.html"><img src="../icons/next.gif" - border="0" height="32" - alt="Next Page" width="32"></A></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="prev" title="1.2 Administrative Roles" + href="node5.html"><img src='previous.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Previous Page' width='32' /></A></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="parent" title="1 Introduction to GNU" + href="node3.html"><img src='up.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Up One Level' width='32' /></A></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="next" title="1.4 Basic Architectural Overview" + href="node7.html"><img src='next.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Next Page' width='32' /></A></td> <td align="center" width="100%">GNU Mailman - List Administration Manual</td> -<td><A href="contents.html"><img src="../icons/contents.gif" - border="0" height="32" - alt="Contents" width="32"></A></td> -<td><img src="../icons/blank.gif" - border="0" height="32" - alt="" width="32"></td> -<td><img src="../icons/blank.gif" - border="0" height="32" - alt="" width="32"></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="contents" title="Table of Contents" + href="contents.html"><img src='contents.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Contents' width='32' /></A></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><img src='blank.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='' width='32' /></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><img src='blank.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='' width='32' /></td> </tr></table> -<b class="navlabel">Previous:</b> <a class="sectref" HREF="node5.html">2.1 A List's Email</A> -<b class="navlabel">Up:</b> <a class="sectref" HREF="node4.html">2 Introduction to GNU</A> -<b class="navlabel">Next:</b> <a class="sectref" HREF="node7.html">2.3 A List's Web</A> -<hr> -<span class="release-info">Release 2.1, documentation updated on October 2, 2004.</span> +<div class='online-navigation'> +<b class="navlabel">Previous:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="prev" href="node5.html">1.2 Administrative Roles</A> +<b class="navlabel">Up:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="parent" href="node3.html">1 Introduction to GNU</A> +<b class="navlabel">Next:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="next" href="node7.html">1.4 Basic Architectural Overview</A> +</div> +</div> +<hr /> +<span class="release-info">Release 2.1, documentation updated on December 13, 2004.</span> </DIV> <!--End of Navigation Panel--> |
