This is to +stop people from unsubscribing you without your permission. In addition, a +moderator may need to approve your unsubscription. + +<p> +If you do not receive this confirmation mail with instructions, make sure +that you typed your email address correctly (if you were using the web +interface to unsubscribe) and that the address you tried +to unsubscribe is, indeed, actually subscribed to that list. For security +reasons, Mailman generates the same member options page regardless of +whether the address entered is subscribed or not.

This feature allows + Mailman to gracefully handle addresses which no longer exist (for example, + the subscriber has found a new internet service provider and forgot to + unsubscribe the old address), as well + as addresses which are temporarily out-of-service (for example, the + subscriber has used up all of the allotted space for his or her email + account, or the subscriber's mail provider is experiencing difficulties). + +<p> +Even if you are unaware of any difficulties with your mail provider, it + is a good idea to check this. Some popular webmail providers and + internet servers are not as reliable as one might assume, nor is the + internet as a whole. You may want to also send yourself a test message + from another account or ask a friend to send you a test message to make + sure your subscribed address is working. + +<p> +To check if this may be the reason you are not receiving messages, log in + to the your options page (See + Section <a href="node9.html#sec:web">3.1</a> for more details on how to do this) and + look at your options. There should be one marked "Mail Delivery" - + if it is set to "Disabled," set it to "Enabled" to start receiving mail + again.

Sometimes, messages simply take a long + time to get to you. Try to be patient, especially if the server is far + (in terms of networks, not geography, although often one implies the other) + from your internet service provider. + +<p> +To check if this might be causing your problem, you can try pinging + the list server or tracing the route between you and it.

In the case +of an electronic mailing list, we use a list of email addresses from people +interested in hearing about or discussing a given topic. + +<p> +Two common types of email mailing lists are announcement lists and discussion +lists. + +<p> +Announcement lists are are used so that one person or group can send +announcements to a group of people, much like a magazine publisher's mailing +list is used to send out magazines. For example, a band may use a mailing list +to let their fan base know about their upcoming concerts. + +<p> +A discussion list is used to allow a group of people to discuss topics amongst +themselves, with everyone able to send mail to the list and have it distributed +to everyone in the group. This discussion may also be moderated, so only +selected posts are sent on to the group as a whole, or only certain people are +allowed to send to the group. For example, a group of model plane enthusiasts +might use a mailing list to share tips about model construction and flying. + +<p> +Some common terms: + +<ul> +<li>A "post" typically denotes a message sent to a mailing list. + (Think of posting a message on a bulletin board.) +</li> +<li>People who are part of an electronic mailing list are usually called + the list's "members" or "subscribers." +</li> +<li>"List administrators" are the people in charge of maintaining that + one list. Lists may have one or more administrators. +</li> +<li>A list may also have people in charge of reading posts and deciding + if they should be sent on to all subscribers. These people are called + list moderators. +</li> +<li>Often more than one electronic mailing list will be run using the same + piece of software. The person who maintains the software which runs + the lists is called the "site administrator." Often the site administrator + also administrates individual lists. +</li> +</ul> +<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 Acknowledgements" + 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" + 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 gnu Mailman" + 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 Member 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 Acknowledgements</a> +<b class="navlabel">Up:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="parent" href="node3.html">1 Introduction</a> +<b class="navlabel">Next:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="next" href="node6.html">1.3 GNU Mailman</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> diff --git a/doc/mailman-member/node6.html b/doc/mailman-member/node6.html new file mode 100644 index 00000000..b9fa7ad8 --- /dev/null +++ b/doc/mailman-member/node6.html @@ -0,0 +1,108 @@ +<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN"> +<html> +<head> +<link rel="STYLESHEET" href="mailman-member.css" type='text/css' /> +<link rel="first" href="mailman-member.html" title='GNU mailman - list Member Manual' /> +<link rel='contents' href='contents.html' title="Contents" /> +<link rel='last' href='about.html' title='About this document...' /> +<link rel='help' href='about.html' title='About this document...' /> +<link rel="prev" href="node5.html" /> +<link rel="parent" href="node3.html" /> +<link rel="next" href="node7.html" /> +<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> +<meta name='aesop' content='information' /> +<title>1.3 GNU Mailman</title> +</head> +<body> +<div class="navigation"> +<div id='top-navigation-panel' xml:id='top-navigation-panel'> +<table align="center" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2"> +<tr> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="prev" title="1.2 what is a" + 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" + 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="2 translating from our" + 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 Member 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="node5.html">1.2 What is a</a> +<b class="navlabel">Up:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="parent" href="node3.html">1 Introduction</a> +<b class="navlabel">Next:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="next" href="node7.html">2 Translating from our</a> +</div> +<hr /></div> +</div> +<!--End of Navigation Panel--> + +<h2><a name="SECTION002130000000000000000"> +1.3 GNU Mailman</a> +</h2> + +<p> +GNU Mailman is software that lets you manage electronic mailing lists.
