 Excellent idea Norbert.

The new list for Mailman listowners is available now at
http://listowner.org/

This list is specifically for discussions from the perspective
of listowners and moderators who do not have shell access to
the mailing list server where the Mailman software runs.

Geek-style highly technical discussions are declared off-topic
on listowner.org -- such discussions will be ruthlessly moved
off to python.org ;-)

The list has a policy through which all postings are put under
GNU Free Documentation License http://www.gnu.org/licenses/fdl.txt
so that they can be used to create a ListOwner's Manual for GNU
Mailman and other interesting literature.

Greetings, Norbert.

ICP I had been hoping to see answers to questions such as:

ICP 1.  Using the Mailman Web interface, all I and others have
ICP access to, how do we create a newsletter list i.e. I'm the
ICP only poster, everyone else being a recipient.

ICP 2.  How can I apply strip mime selectively to my news group
ICP list? Other people with my host using Mailman want to retain
ICP the HTML feature.

Personally, I think both of these items are on-topic for
mailman-users.

Great! I'd like to be part of that list. If I could help in any way
(including volunteering time), let me know.

Excellent idea Norbert.

I can't speak for others but I'm certain a great many Mailman users must be in
the same position as myself. My host runs and maintains Mailman. Hence most
topics on this list tend to be inapplicable.

I had been hoping to see answers to questions such as:

1.  Using the Mailman Web interface, all I and others have access to, how do we
create a newsletter list i.e. I'm the only poster, everyone else being a
recipient.

2.  How can I apply strip mime selectively to my news group list? Other people
with my host using Mailman want to retain the HTML feature.

My problem principally is that with our news group [separate from 1 above], many
subscribers use their place of employment [work related topics] to receive email
and, those work places complain loudly about receiving HTML mail and bounce it.

[Mailman-Users] Another list for list-admins?

2002-04-26 Thread Frederick Noronha

This list seems to be more of a technical list for people setting-up and
maintaining Mailman. Is there some list where non-tech people like me
could share simple ideas on how to get the most of Mailman's features?

For some of my work, please visit http://www.indialists.org

A number of our lists run on Mailman, a fantastic MLM software.
