Secondly, please CC me if somebody answers to this query as I have stopped mail delivery from the list.
Then you should read the list archives on the web to see your post and any replies. Some people Cc the poster routinely for various reasons, and some do not, but you don't need to ask people do do things they wouldn't ordinarily do when there is a simple alternative.
Hi all, Thank you first of all Mark for taking time to answer my queries. I do note your point but my experience has been the above works (most of the time) . It is a compromise but then we all have only so much time that can be used between competing interests and I found out that the above works for me.
What I want to know if administrators can have some sort of own unique passwords which Mailman can authenticate as to who took what steps ?
Not in Mailman 2.1, but this will be the case in Mailman 3, at least the unique password part.
Cool, looking forward to it.
I looked up both the archives and the wiki to see if something similar was asked before but somehow wasn't able to get any clear answers.
I got the following results but they seem to be different and unsatisfactory :-
I don't know to which specific part of this you are referring.

My apologies here. I guess I forgot to clarify what I had done. I tried looking for the query framed as 'unique listadmin password' both on the wiki as well http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users@python.org/ search function to see if some prior discussions had taken before on the same/similar topic but did not get any exact results. The only remotely similar email I got was the link I shared before :-

The author of this post is confused. One can authenticate for private archive access with the list admin password and any or no email address (the email address is ignored for authentication via the list admin password unless the admin password is coincidentally the same as the member password for the provided email address), but members authenticate with their own email address and member password.
I do know the difference between authenticating as a member and as an admin but as already answered the feature I'm looking for is coming in MM 3.
Thank you once again.
