Hi,
I want to make it so that users can subscribe to the mailing list on my website through a simple form that just asks for their email address. (The confirmation email will then give them their password). Is there a way to pass an email entered in a form on another page to Mailman's subscription page?
Thanks, Farah

You might be able to POST from your form to the same action page that the Mailman subscribe page does. (I haven't looked at it to know if this old cross form trick will work.)
You might also be able to send a carefully crafted email, to the <list>-request address, that appears as if the person send an email asking to "subscribe" to the mailing list.
