How to configure a mailman list so mailman to not send any messages to this list?
Hi,
i created a list, but i want to configure mailman to not sent any messages to members of this list. I want to use this list as a backup list where to keep all my members. The members must not able to send messages and also mailman must not send messages to them.
How can i do that?
Thanks in advanced!

A curious case: I'd be interested to know why you feel you need a "backup" this way? Why not just backup the list config (including subscription members) & archive (if applicable).
The members must not able to send messages and also mailman must not send messages to them.
set everyone to moderated, disable posts from non-listmembers, hope for the best ;) (these are in the FAQ, http://wiki.list.org/x/a4A9 handles the first part)

Thanks. :)
We use google groups for this list, but i wanted to keep these members also in a mailman list and to manage the members status in this list. Which user is disabled, which user is active and so on.
This is why i want to limit mailman to not send any messages to these members.

Also, set delivery disabled for all members (see <http://www.msapiro.net/scripts/set_nomail.py> and set send_reminders (periodic password reminders) to No.
You may not want to disable delivery for all since I see in a reply that you may want to use this to track status on another (google) list. If so, you have to be sure that no one can post as Adam says above.
But in any case, you need to set reminders off.
