XMission offers mailing lists via the GNU Mailman software. You can view the publicly available mailing lists on our system by visiting the Mailman listinfo page. List administrators can access the web interface for their lists by visiting a URL of the following format:

http://mailman.xmission.com/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/listname

Where listname is the unique name assigned to the list in question. Using this web interface, list administrators can manage virtually every aspect of how their mailing list functions. For more information about how Mailman works and how to configure a list, please see the GNU Mailman List Administrator documentation. Mailman is designed primarily for discussion between subscribers, so users who intend to use the Mailman system for one-way announcement lists will need to make changes to the configuration of their Mailman list before attempting to use it.

NOTE: XMission requires that only subscribers can post to mailman lists. All lists must be moderated.
