I just started a new mailing list and its great. I would like to know how to keep subscribers from getting to any screen where they can manage their settings or post to the list. Basically I want to manage the list entirely myself where subscribers simply receive emails and cannot respond. Thanks for any help, Christian

by "screen" I'm assuming that you mean "web page".

That's entirely down to your HTTPD configuration -- and how you wish to control access.
And, perhaps more important to end-user, how you will provide mechanisms for unsubscriptions.

I'd say it should also be fairly important to him as well considering current spam legislation and the penalties associated with not providing an opt out mechanism.
