See the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/3YA9> for advice on setting up a one way list. Also, If you have access to the underlying server, You can use Mailman's bin/config_list to save the configuration of a list once it is properly set up and then the same tool can be used to apply those settings to a new list in the future. The first step to prevent members from posting is to set Privacy options... -> Sender filters -> default_member_moderation to Yes and then under Membership Management... -> Membership List -> Additional Member Tasks, "Set everyone's moderation bit, including those members not currently visible" to On. There are other things you want to do that are covered in the FAQ. Also, If this is your own Mailman installation and most or all lists will be one way, you can set DEFAULT_DEFAULT_MEMBER_MODERATION = Yes in mm_cfg.py, and then new lists will be created with default_member_moderation set to Yes. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
