NB this is not part of the standard list documentation ('cause there are only two or three lists set up like this). You need to add one or two options to ezmlm-make to specify a list with only-list-members-may-post and approval-needed-to-subscribe. You can look at the man page, or look at /qmail/lists-sourceware/cygwin-developers/config. The first line of that file shows the command line options that were used to create it. (NB this is the 'old style' config file -- the lists that have been created recently have the options used in lower case and the options not used in upper case.) > I can't remember if this is all possible using ezmlm remote administration > commands. If it is possible, I'll deal with that part. No, unfortunately this is integral to the way the list is set up at the beginning and needs to be done by a system admin.
