The only way public can find your mailing list is by: 1- Placing it in your web site 2- Advertise it on other public newsgroups 3- Mail the URL to all of your clients http://www.<host>/mailman/listinfo/ will reveal nothing
Unless you edit the "~/mailman/Mailman/Cgi/listinfo.py " file and add your lists URL dodgy but it will work. Better option is to put the list on your web site with full link like this http://www.<host>/mailman/listinfo/doc http://www.<host>/mailman/listinfo/examples http://www.<host>/mailman/listinfo/programming and so on
here is an example of a html page <html> <head> <title>Mailing List Page</title> </head> <body> <p> </p> <p>Mailing List</p> <p><a href="http://www.host/mailman/listinfo/dev">dev</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.host/mailman/listinfo/examples">examples</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.host/mailman/listinfo/programming">programming</a></p> <p> </p> </body> </html>
Cheers
