Hello everyone,
My name is Kim Huff and I am new to the list. I have been using Mailman for some time now but I know that I have barely tapped its full potential. I have my own dedicated server and on there I have a few of my clients using the Mailman service. Most of them would like to offer a way for their possibly subscribers the ability to sign-up on line. We want to be very careful about this because we want to make sure people that do not belong to the organization can sign up. So, we would want anyone that signs up to go into a queue and wait to be approved. If there person truly is a part of the group, we will have people that have those records and they can approve or deny a request. The problem is. what URL does one use for to subscribe? Is there a way for me to customize this page? Most of my clients use Joomla so I would need to make sure the subscription page can work within a Joomla page.
I do appreciate any help you can provide. Unfortunately, I am kind of in a time crunch so I hope everyone gets this message quickly.
Kim
