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. + +<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. + +<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. + +<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. + +<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="1.1 a List's Email" + href="node4.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="1.3 a List's Web" + href="node6.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="node4.html">1.1 A List's Email</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="node6.html">1.3 A List's Web</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> |
