The Mailman site admin password can be used to administer any list. Of course, the individual list admin password can always be reset, either by another Mailman list admin or by the site admin. But in all cases, all you're talking about is a password -- there is no separate account name associated with that. Anyone who has the password gets in, but if you don't have the password then you are kept out. It's not like you have to specify both username and password -- it's password only. With regards to admin passwords, those are the only choices. Anything else will require source code modifications. -- Brad Knowles, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trend Micro has announced that they will cancel the stop.mail-abuse.org mail forwarding service as of 15 November 2006.
