<span class="warning"><b class="label">Warning:</b>
56
Do NOT use a valuable password, since this

password may be mailed to you in plain text. </span>
60
From the web interface:
63
<li>Log in to your member options page. (See Section <a href="node9.html#sec:web">3.1</a> for
64
instructions on how to do this.)
68
<li>Look for the password changing boxes on the right-hand side of the
69
page and enter your new password in the appropriate boxes, then press the
70
button marked "Change My Password."
75
This can also be changed for multiple lists at the same time if you are subscribed to
76
more than one list on the same domain. See Section <a href="node34.html#sec:global">10.1</a> for
77
information about changing settings globally.
80
From the email interface:
83
<li>Send a mail to <span class="email">LISTNAME-request@DOMAIN</span> with the command
84
<var>password <span class="MATH"><IMG
85
WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
87
ALT="$<$"></span>OLDPASSWORD<span class="MATH"><IMG

100
in either the body or the subject of the message. (See
101
Section <a href="node10.html#sec:email">3.2</a> for more information about sending mail
105
If you are not sending mail from your membership address, you can also
106
specify this address with <var>address=<span class="MATH"><IMG
107
WIDTH="16" HEIGHT="31" ALIGN="MIDDLE" BORDER="0"
109
ALT="$<$"></span>ADDRESS<span class="MATH"><IMG

121
For example, if <span class="email">kathy@here.com</span> wanted to change her <var>mylist</var>
122
password from <var>zirc</var> to <var>miko</var>, but she was sending mail from
123
her work address <span class="email">kathy@work.com</span>, she could send a message
124
to <span class="email">mylist-request@example.com</span> with the subject set to
125
<var>password zirc miko address=kathy@here.com</var>.
