<h2><a name="SECTION0021030000000000000000">
10.3 How do I set my preferred language?</a>
</h2>
<p>
Mailman is available with many different languages.
(For a complete listing see <a class="url" href="http://mailman.sourceforge.net/i18n.html">http://mailman.sourceforge.net/i18n.html</a>.) This means that, if your list has
other languages enabled, you may be able to have the web interface, etc. in a
language of your choice.
<p>
<span class="note"><b class="label">Note:</b>
This does NOT necessarily mean that all the posts sent to the list will
be in the language you selected. Only the pre-prepared texts presented by
Mailman will be affected by this setting. Posts are in whatever language the
poster uses.</span>
<p>
Your preferred language is set when you subscribe (see
Section<a href="node13.html#sec:subscribe">5.1</a>), and can be changed later if the list supports
more than one language.
<p>
To change your preferred language in Mailman,
<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.)
</li>
<li>Go to the section marked "What language do you prefer?" and choose
the appropriate language from the drop-down list. If there is no
drop-down list of languages, the list you are on probably only supports
one language.
</li>
</ol>
<p>
If your list does not support the language you would prefer to use, you may
contact the list administrator (LISTNAME-owner@DOMAIN) to see if it can be
added, but remember that this may mean some work that the list and/or site
administrator(s) do not have time or the ability to do.
<p>
If your language of choice is not available because no translation
exists for Mailman, please consider volunteering your time as a translator.
For more information you may want to consult the mailman-i18n mailing
list at <a class="url" href="http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-i18n">http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-i18n</a>.
(i18n is a common short-hand for "internationalization" because the word starts
with an i, ends with an n, and has 18 letters in between. If you mumble a bit,
i18n even sounds a bit like "internationalization.")
