+3.1 The web interface
+</h2>
+The web interface of Mailman is its selling point for many administrators,
+since it makes it much easier for subscribers and administrators to see
+which options are available, and what these options do.
+
+<p>
+Every mailing list is also accessible by a number of web pages. Note that
+the exact URLs are configurable by the site administrator, so they may be
+different than what's described below. We'll describe the most common
+configuration, but check with your site administrator or hosting
+service for details.
+
+<p>
+<dl>
+<dt><strong>List information (listinfo) page</strong></dt>
+<dd><ul>
+<li>Usually found at <a class="url" href="http://WEBSERVER/mailman/listinfo/LISTNAME">http://WEBSERVER/mailman/listinfo/LISTNAME</a> (for example, <a class="url" href="http://lists.example.com/mailman/listinfo/mylist">http://lists.example.com/mailman/listinfo/mylist</a>)
+
+<p>
+</li>
+<li>The listinfo page is the starting point for the subscriber
+ interface. As one would assume from the name it's given, it
+ contains information about the LISTNAME list.
+ Usually all the other subscriber pages can be accessed from this
+ point, so you really only need to know this one address.
+
+<p>
+</li>
+</ul>
+
+<p>
+</dd>
+<dt><strong>Member options page</strong></dt>
+<dd><ul>
+<li>Usually found at <a class="url" href="http://WEBSERVER/mailman/options/LISTNAME/EMAIL">http://WEBSERVER/mailman/options/LISTNAME/EMAIL</a> (For example, <a class="url" href="http://lists.example.com/mailman/options/mylist/kathy@here.com">http://lists.example.com/mailman/options/mylist/kathy@here.com</a>)
+
+<p>
+</li>
+<li>This page can also be accessed by going to the listinfo page
+ and entering your email address into the box beside the button
+ marked "Unsubscribe or Edit Options" (this is near the bottom of the
+ page).
+
+<p>
+</li>
+<li>The member options page allows you to log in/out and change your
+ list settings, as well as unsubscribe or get a copy of your password
+ mailed to you.
+
+<p>
+</li>
+<li><b>To log in to your member options page</b>:
+ If you are not already logged in, there will be a box near the top for
+ you to enter your password. (If you do not know your password, see
+ Section&nbsp;<a href="node16.html#sec:getpassword">6.1</a> for more information on getting your
+ password.) Enter your password in the box and press the button.
+
+<p>
+</li>
+<li>Once you are logged in, you will be able to view and change
+ all your list settings.
+
+<p>
+</li>
+</ul>
+
+</dd>
+<dt><strong>List Archives</strong></dt>
+<dd><ul>
+<li>Usually found at <a class="url" href="http://WEBSERVER/pipermail/LISTNAME">http://WEBSERVER/pipermail/LISTNAME</a> if the
+ list is publicly archived, and
+ <a class="url" href="http://WEBSERVER/mailman/private/LISTNAME">http://WEBSERVER/mailman/private/LISTNAME</a> if the list is privately
+ archives. (For example,
+ <a class="url" href="http://lists.example.com/pipermail/mylist">http://lists.example.com/pipermail/mylist</a> or
+ <a class="url" href="http://lists.example.com/mailman/private/mylist">http://lists.example.com/mailman/private/mylist</a>)
+
+<p>
+</li>
+<li>The list archive pages have copies of the posts sent to the
+ mailing list, usually grouped by month. In each monthly group, the
+ posts are usually indexed by author, date, thread, and subject.
+
+<p>
+</li>
+<li><span class="note"><b class="label">Note:</b>
+Pipermail is the name of the default archiver that
+ comes with Mailman. Other archive programs are available.</span>
+
+<p>
+</li>
+<li>If the archive is private, you will need to supply your
+ subscribed email address and your password to log in. (See
+ Section&nbsp;<a href="node16.html#sec:getpassword">6.1</a> for more information on getting
+ your password.)
