I have a moderator from a country you have to pay by the minute to access the Internet. He would like an email admin interface because it's more expensive for him to do the web interface for routine tasks such as approving a post or adding or removing a list member.
I have not tested what it means to have the whole list
moderated, but
I assume, that this is not just for "special people" but that
all
moderation is done via web interface. Now, that might be okay
in the USA,
where you have flat rates, no phone fees to access the
internet.
But in most other countries, we pay by the minute of online
time.
So, for nearly every admin outside North America,
administration
including moderating a mailing list via email will save a lot
of
money, because downloading is quick, but reading potentially
large emails
really costs time. Maybe you want to bring that to the
attention of
the mailman developers? Doing the settings of the list on the
web is
okay, but anything regular and time-intensive should be made
possible to
handle via email.
The International users would appreciate developers doing the Mailcmd todo items sooner than rather than later,
Thank you ,
