Someone else previously posted this answer (when this same question was
asked a few days ago):
Just limit the postings to key e-mails, and not subscribers
in the options pages. The restricted posting access will
make it "announce only."
This seems to be a Frequently Asked Question. Is there a FAQ for this
list? The Mailman FAQs at lists.org do not cover the questions that seem
to be frequently asked on this list. This also is a frequent reason people
setup mailing lists. Why isn't this better covered in the software
documentation? (Why isn't the software's documentation available anywhere
online???? I can't find it at lists.org, I'm told that it's in the readme
files, so you can't read the documentation until AFTER you download and
unpack the source code!) Can the next software release include a blurb
that is specifically about setting up "announcement only" lists? I'd be
happy to do the writing if I could be assured it gets added to the
documentation.
