Hope that helps to explain why an administrative email interface can be useful.
There's no question that an e-mail interface can be useful. The value of this was recognized a long time ago. Mailman does already include an e-mail interface.
I am sorry if I am being really dense; but what _is_ the administrative email interface to Mailman? For example, how _can_ a list administrator unsub a bunch of listmembers via email? I cannot for the world of me find any documentation on this.
I am in the process of deciding whether to move a fairly large list-hosting operation from majordomo to Mailman. Although most of our listowners use exclusively MajorCool, there are a few -- some with very large lists -- who do all their subscription and unsubscription operations via email. I want to be able to tell them how they can do this in Mailman, but I haven't been able to find out. Yet I see these hope-arousing little hints, such as Brad's above, that it can be done...
