I'm sorry. I didn't see it on the 2nd. It got caught in spam filtering for some reason. In any case, I've got it now. > ------ Forwarded Message -------- > From: Las Vegas Community of Christ <cofchris...@cox.net> > Date: 8/2/2020 9:09:13 AM > Subject: Re: [Mailman-Users] Re: Deleting List swimc.org > To: Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> > > Hi Mark, > After some time I finally did figure out the role newqwestmailman and I did > go to them.

You may or may not have known that. You can go to <http://lists.swimc.org/mailman/admin/swimcemaillist>, but you may not know the password to log in. If you don't know the password, you would need to get the admins at newqwestmailman to reset it for you which I gather they may not know how or be willing to do. If it is a matter of not knowing, refer them to <https://wiki.list.org/x/4030543>. Even if you do know the password, that may not be sufficient to delete the list. It depends on the server configuration. Also, the Mailman installation on that server is at least partially broken because if I try to go to the overview pages at <http://lists.swimc.org/mailman/admin/> or <http://lists.swimc.org/mailman/listinfo/>, I get the "Bug in Mailman version 2.1.18-1" page. If you can get logged in to the <http://lists.swimc.org/mailman/admin/swimcemaillist> pages, there may be a "Delete this list" link near the top on the right which may work, but the server may be configured to not have that. Even if you can't delete the list, you can go to <http://lists.swimc.org/mailman/admindb/swimcemaillist> and discard the pending posts. Then you can go to <http://lists.swimc.org/mailman/admin/swimcemaillist/privacy> and set ^. (the two characters up-arrow or caret followed by dot or period) in the ban list to prevent anyone from subscribing, and go to <http://lists.swimc.org/mailman/admin/swimcemaillist/privacy/sender> and set default_member_moderation to Yes and member_moderation_action to Discard and finally, go to <http://lists.swimc.org/mailman/admin/swimcemaillist/members> and "Set everyone's moderation bit, including those members not currently visible" On. Those changes will cause any subscription requests to be rejected and any posts to be discarded, so you'll get no more moderator notices. If any of this is unclear or I can be of further help, let me know. -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
