6.2 How do I change my password?</a>
</h2>
<span class="warning"><b class="label">Warning:</b>
Do NOT use a valuable password, since this
password may be mailed to you in plain text. </span>
<p>
From the web interface:
<ol>
<li>Log in to your member options page. (See Section <a href="node9.html#sec:web">3.1</a> for
instructions on how to do this.)
<p>
</li>
<li>Look for the password changing boxes on the right-hand side of the
page and enter your new password in the appropriate boxes, then press the
button marked "Change My Password."
</li>
</ol>
<p>
This can also be changed for multiple lists at the same time if you are subscribed to
more than one list on the same domain. See Section <a href="node34.html#sec:global">10.1</a> for
information about changing settings globally.
<p>
From the email interface:
<ol>
<li>Send a mail to <span class="email">LISTNAME-request@DOMAIN</span> with the command
<var>password <span class="MATH"><IMG
WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
SRC="img1.png"
ALT="$<$"></span>OLDPASSWORD<span class="MATH"><IMG
WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
SRC="img2.png"
ALT="$>$"></span> <span class="MATH"><IMG
WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
SRC="img1.png"
ALT="$<$"></span>NEWPASSWORD<span class="MATH"><IMG
WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
SRC="img2.png"
ALT="$>$"></span></var>.
<p>
Commands can appear
in either the body or the subject of the message. (See
Section <a href="node10.html#sec:email">3.2</a> for more information about sending mail
commands.)
<p>
If you are not sending mail from your membership address, you can also
specify this address with <var>address=<span class="MATH"><IMG
WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
SRC="img1.png"
ALT="$<$"></span>ADDRESS<span class="MATH"><IMG
WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
SRC="img2.png"
ALT="$>$"></span></var> after <span class="MATH"><IMG
WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
SRC="img1.png"
ALT="$<$"></span>NEWPASSWORD<span class="MATH"><IMG
WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
SRC="img2.png"
ALT="$>$"></span>.
<p>
For example, if <span class="email">kathy@here.com</span> wanted to change her <var>mylist</var>
password from <var>zirc</var> to <var>miko</var>, but she was sending mail from
her work address <span class="email">kathy@work.com</span>, she could send a message
to <span class="email">mylist-request@example.com</span> with the subject set to
<var>password zirc miko address=kathy@here.com</var>.
