Hi-- This is my first post, and I hope you can help me figure something out.
I am a therapist who administers a Mailman (2.1.15) list for a local group of other therapists. The Mailman software was set up by someone else with whom I don't interact in an ongoing way. I handle all administrative requests for our list, and have customized various Mailman administration pages for our mailing group (custom Welcome Message, footer, plain vs MIME digests, ACK or no, etc.). One of the Umbrella list settings under General Options is "Send monthly password reminders?" which I have set to NO. (None of our members want to access the list messages via the web, so they don't have or need passwords.) Nonetheless, some of our members are getting these Monthly Reminder Messages anyway, despite the NO setting (not all--I haven't gotten one myself), and they are writing to me, confused. Can anyone explain to me why the NO setting is not sticking, or is being overridden? It is also puzzling why only some of the members are getting the reminder. There is no setting in the individual members' settings/options that has anything to do with this reminder, nor do all recipients of the reminders have the same email domains. One more bit of information: The person who set up the mailing list for us also set up two other regional lists, all within the same domain. In other words, my list is xxx_xxx.ourdomain.org, while another is yyy_yyy.ourdomain.org. Is it possible that there are "master umbrella" (?) settings somewhere that override mine, settings that the original setter-upper of this software can tweak? By the way, I did write to him too, but I like to find out whatever I can on my own. Plus I may not be at the top of his priority list. Any ideas? Thanks.
