But most of the times you know the exact address you want to unsubscribe or view/edit, so why not add a search box on top? Can't this already be done by using the list member's "options" page (using the user's address in combination with your list admin password)? you mean something like http://server/mailman/options/mailinglist/ricardo--at--rixhq.nu ?
Yup -- the URL with the unobfuscated email address at the end works just as well, or you can get to the page by using the "Edit Options" box typically found on a list's "listinfo" page.
besides not being very convenient to do, i don't think it works w/o knowing the users' password...
Have you tried?
as far as i can see there's no way telling you're the admin
If you are able to supply the list admin password, then that should suffice :)
and I doubt that admin password can override it.
The list admin password can always be used in place of any member's password. And, the site admin password can always be used in place of any list admin password (and therefore also in place of any list member's password).
I disagree. The list admin interface is cryptic enough as it is, IMO. Further obscuring the overview of list members wouldn't be nice.
actually I suggested this because I think that would make the member options much more simple. Having a partial list of the members immediately is what makes it cryptic IMHO.
I agree that the chunk-stuff can be cryptic, but I don't think that requiring the admin to follow additional links (or whatever) to even get to that chunk-sized interface would make the admin interface as a whole less cryptic.
What do others think?
My list has about 1700 members and navigating with the way it is not is not very convenient (even if you get used to it) and I can't imagine how it would be like for people with 10k lists :)
Me neither :)
