[Mailman-Users] newbie: no auto subscription + control on number

[Lloyd F. Tennison]

On the first, set the Subscribe options to require approval.  On the 
second question, some MTA's or the combination Cpanel with 
Mailman may do it.  I can limit messages sent per hour per domain - 
but not necessarily for Mailman.
