[Mailman-Users] disable a mailing list

[Stoyan Angelov]

hello all,

i want to temporary disable one of my mailing lists while keeping the 
archives available. i run mailman 2.1.12 with sendmail. i was thinking 
about doing the following:

. remove the appropriate aliases from /path/to/aliases (redirecting the 
<mailling-list>-owner of the affected list to some real address)
. move the /path/to/mailman/lists/<disabled-list> directory to a 
temporary location

is this the proper way to disable a list? is there anything else that 
needs to be done?


greetings,

Stoyan
