1.3 A List's Web Pages</A>
56
Every mailing list is also accessible by a number of web pages. Note
57
that the exact urls is configurable by the site administrator, so they
58
may be different than what's described below. We'll describe the most
59
common default configuration, but check with your site administrator
60
or hosting service for details.
63
Mailman provides a set of web pages that list members use to get
64
information about the list, or manage their membership options. There
65
are also list archive pages, for browsing an online web-based archive
66
of the list traffic. These are described in more detail in the GNU
67
Mailman user's manual.
70
Mailman also provides a set of pages for configuring an individual
71
list, as well as a set of pages for disposing of posting and
72
subscription requests.
75
For a mailing list called <var>mylist</var> hosted at the domain
76
<var>lists.example.com</var>, you would typically access the administrative
77
pages by going to <code>http://lists.example.com/mailman/admin/mylist</code>.
78
The first time you visit this page, you will be presented with a login
79
page, asking for the list owner's password. When you enter the
80
password, Mailman will store a session cookie in your browser, so you
81
don't have to re-authenticate for every action you want to take. This
82
cookie is stored only until you exit your browser.
85
To access the administrative requests page, you'd visit
86
<code>http://lists.example.com/mailman/admindb/mylist</code> (note the
87
<em>admindb</em> url as opposed to the <em>admin</em> url). Again, the
88
first time you visit this page, you'll be presented with a login page,
89
on which you can enter either the list moderator password or the list
90
owner password. Again, a session cookie is dropped in your browser.
91
Note also that if you've previously logged in as the list owner, you
92
do not need to re-login to access the administrative requests page.
