I'm brand new to mailman (about 30 minutes ago). I am switching a group of related mailing lists to use mailman. There are five separate mailing lists, call them l1, l2, l3, l4 and l5. Each list is associated with a specific school. There is a general reflector that looks like this in /etc/aliases:
biglist: l1, l2, l3, l4, l5
These are private lists. Archiving is disabled. Only list members can view the contents of their individual lists. The intention is that people will normally want to post to biglist, but occasionally want to hold school-specific discussions on one of the smaller lists.
I am on l3. As an initial test, I sent mail to the five lists. The message got held up in l1 awaiting manager approval.
Is there some way I can continue to operate in this umbrella mode with things fairly tightly restricted regarding posts? I guess I'm asking for something in between allowing only list members to post and allowing the whole world to post.
Thx,
