Re: [Mailman-Users] RE: Disabling Passwords
You can also unsubscribe via email so if you set up something to store the user's passwords somewhere, you could have another email form to cgi setup send off the appropriate unsubscribe request for you.

Is that a manual process? Do they send the unsubscribe to you and then you take them off the list or is that a scripted feature of 2.1 that is not available in 2.0.

Re: [Mailman-Users] RE: Disabling Passwords
I'm not sure how he set it up, but you could just set up a 'subscription form' or whatever that your users fill in that hooks into a cgi script that just sends off an email to the appropriate mailman subscribe address. If you subscribe an address via email with mailman, it will just make up a random password for the user. If your users don't need to use it ever, they'll never know the difference.
