Most of these +notifications can be configured in this section, but see the Bounce +Processing and Auto-responder categories for other notifications that +Mailman can send. + +<p> +<dl> +<dt><strong>send_reminders</strong></dt> +<dd>By default Mailman sends all list members a monthly password + reminder. This notice serves two purposes. First, it reminds + people about all the lists they may be subscribed to on this + domain, including the lists where their subscription may be + disabled. Second, it reminds people about their passwords for + these lists, as well as the url for their personal options pages, + so that they can more easily configure their subscription options. + +<p> +Some people get annoyed with these monthly reminders, and they can + disable the reminders via their subscription options page. For + some lists, the monthly reminders aren't appropriate for any of + the members, so you can disable them list-wide by setting the + <code>send_reminders</code> variable to <em>No</em>. + +<p> +</dd> +<dt><strong>welcome_msg</strong></dt> +<dd>When new members are subscribed to the list, either by their own + action, or the action of a list administrator, a welcome message + can be sent to them. The welcome message contains some common + boilerplate information, such as the name of the list, + instructions for posting to the list, and the member's + subscription password. You can add additional information to the + welcome message by typing the text into the <code>welcome_msg</code> + text box. Note that because this text is sent as part of an + email, it should <strong>not</strong> contain HTML. + +<p> +</dd> +<dt><strong>send_welcome_msg</strong></dt> +<dd>This flag controls whether or not the welcome message is sent to + new subscribers. + +<p> +</dd> +<dt><strong>goodbye_msg</strong></dt> +<dd>Like the <code>welcome_msg</code>, a ``goodbye'' message can be sent to + members when they unsubscribe from the list. Unlike the welcome + message, there's no boilerplate for the goodbye message. Enter + the entire goodbye message you'd like unsubscribing members to + receive into the <code>goodbye_msg</code> text box. + +<p> +</dd> +<dt><strong>send_goodbye_msg</strong></dt> +<dd>This flag controls whether or not the goodbye message is sent to + unsubscribing members. + +<p> +</dd> +<dt><strong>admin_immed_notify</strong></dt> +<dd>List moderators get notifications of pending administrative + actions, such as subscription or unsubscription requests that + require moderator approval, or posted messages that are being held + for moderator approval. List moderators will always get a daily + summary of such pending requests, but they can also get immediate + notifications when such a request is made. The + <code>admin_immed_notify</code> variable controls whether these + immediate notifications are sent or not. It's generally a good + idea to leave this set to <em>Yes</em>. + +<p> +</dd> +<dt><strong>admin_notify_mchanges</strong></dt> +<dd>This variable controls whether the list administrators should get + notifications when members join or leave the list. + +<p> +</dd> +<dt><strong>respond_to_post_requests</strong></dt> +<dd>This variable controls whether the original sender of a posting + gets a notice when their message is held for moderator approval. + +<p> +</dd> +</dl> + +<p> + +<div class="navigation"> +<div class='online-navigation'> +<p></p><hr /> +<table align="center" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2"> +<tr> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="prev" title="2.1.3 umbrella list settings" + href="node12.html"><img src='previous.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Previous Page' width='32' /></a></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="parent" title="2.1 the General Options" + href="node9.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="2.1.5 additional settings" + href="node14.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 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> +<div class='online-navigation'> +<b class="navlabel">Previous:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="prev" href="node12.html">2.1.3 Umbrella list settings</a> +<b class="navlabel">Up:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="parent" href="node9.html">2.1 The General Options</a> +<b class="navlabel">Next:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="next" href="node14.html">2.1.5 Additional settings</a> +</div> +</div> +<hr /> +<span class="release-info">Release 2.1, documentation updated on December 5, 2007.</span> +</div> +<!--End of Navigation Panel--> + +</body> +</html> |
