====== Managing Your Email Lists With Mailman  ======

==== Links ====

To get to the administration page for your list, type the following URL into your browser, replacing LIST-NAME with your actual listname (without the @socsci.uci.edu):

  * ''%%https://mail.socsci.uci.edu/mailman/admin/LIST-NAME%%''

Be sure to bookmark that page for easier access!

===== Instructions for new moderators =====

You should have received an email containing your list moderator password. Use this to login at the above URL.

==== How to add Members ====
Click the link for **Membership Management** near the top, then the link for **Mass Subscription**.
You can then paste a list of email addresses (one per line) into the text box. I recommend leaving the options at the top at the default values: "Subscribe" means they will be immediately subscribed, and "No" to the options for sending a welcome message and notification message. Click the **Submit your changes** button at the bottom to save the change.

==== How to remove Members ====

=== Option 1 ===
Click on **Membership Management**, then **Mass Removal**. Enter the email addresses to be removed, one per line. Click **Submit your changes** at the bottom to apply the removal. I recommend leaving the options to send unsubscription acknowledgement and notifications to "No".

=== Option 2 ===
Click on **Membership Management**. On the **Membership List** page, you can check the box to the left of any members you want to remove, then click on **Submit your changes** at the bottom to apply.
==== How to Moderate the Lists ====
The lists are set up to only allow email messages from pre-approved senders. If anyone else sends to the list, you will receive an email with details about the new message and a link to click where you can log in to approve/discard/reject the message. Moderators can then decide to approve the message, reject the message (it will send a rejection notice to the original sender), or discard the message (no notification sent to the original sender). They can also decide to permanently allow or discard messages from that sender.

==== How to Add/Change Moderators ====
If you want someone else to also be a moderator of the list, then go to the list admin website and click on the **General Options** link at the top, then add a new email address in the text box for **The list moderator email addresses.** Click the **Submit your changes** button at the bottom of the page to save your changes.

Then simply share the moderator password with them so that they can also login.

=== Moderator Password ===

If you need the moderator password reset, contact sscs@uci.edu and provide the name of your list.
