= Introduction =
This document is intended to help the members of a Mailman 2.1 mailing list
learn to use the features available to them. It covers the use of the
web and email interfaces for subscribing and unsubscribing, changing
member options, getting password reminders and other subscriber-level
tasks. It also answers some common questions of interest to Mailman list
members.

Information for list and site administrators is provided in
other documents.

This document need not be read in order. If you are simply looking for
an answer to a specific question, jump to the appropriate place and
references to other sections will be provided if necessary or potentially
helpful.

{{{
For the purposes of this document,
we assume that the reader is familiar with common terms related to email (eg:
Subject line, body of the message) and web sites (eg: drop-down box, button) or
can look them up. We also assume that the reader can already use his or her
email program and web browser well enough that instructions such as "send email
to this address" or "visit this web page" or "fill in the form provided" are
clear. If you are not familiar with these actions, you may want to consult
other documentation to learn how to do these things with your particular
setup.

Sections of this document have been borrowed from the List Administrator Manual
found in Mailman CVS, which was written by Barry A. Warsaw, and from the in-line
help for Mailman 2.1.

The rest of this manual has been written by Terri Oda, and (hopefully soon) edited and added to by members of the mailman community via the mailman wiki at [[http://wiki.list.org]]. Please see the wiki changelogs for more information.

Terri has been maintaining mailing lists since the year she attained
voting age in Canada, although the two are not related. She currently
oversees the mailing lists at Linuxchix.org, as well as several smaller
servers. In the world outside of list administration, Terri is doing
work with an artificial life spam detector, and is actually more of a
programmer than technical writer.

Proofreading thanks go to Margaret McCarthy and Jason Walton.
