We're looking at options to manage our mailman3 lists programmatically from a saas platform we offer.
The rest api seems like the way to go, but almost everything I read about it says do not expose this publicly.
Does anyone have an alternative option to be able to do this? We use a managed mailman installation, so we do not have carte blanche on the server

Use a dedicated encrypted tunnel from the saas platform to the list host. As long as that goes directly to Mailman's REST port, I don't see why the management would have a problem. Unless you're sharing the Mailman instance---but if that's a problem I don't think they'd give you REST access either.

Hmm, that's an option, if we can lock down the src address *Daniel Krause* *Head of IT*
