Hi,

I help manage a series of mailing lists. It is currently configured for me to 
manually subscribe users. We do not offer the subscribers the opportunity to 
manage their own subscription...they are required to be a part of this list. We 
do not have passwords setup for subscribers, so they do not have to do the 
periodic password updates.

I also have the lists setup to privately archive.

I am looking for a way to give subscribers a generic password that would 
authenticate them to be able to view the archives (so they can revisit any past 
messages). Note, I do not want them to be able to access their subscriber 
settings to be able to unsubscribe themselves. I would almost like to just have 
everyone be given a generic password (that I could give out upon request), so 
they can view the private archives. That's all.

Any ideas? Our Mailman access is restricted just to accessing our mailing lists 
administration pages on the web. Our service is hosted...I do not have direct 
access to the server.

Thanks,

Ian
