[Mailman-Users] mailman without CGI?

the web server i run doesn't support CGI scripts.  i kind of like
it that way, in general.

from the mailman docs, and from the little bit of playing i've
done, it looks as if from a users point of view the web interface
isn't strictly needed -- all operations can be accomplished via
email messages to the xxx-request address.  i also believe the
pipermail interface isn't dependent on cgi access, though i might
be mistake on that.

what's not so clear is whether the admin functions (message and
subscription approval, etc) can be done without the web.  is there
a command line interface for any of that stuff?
