private means the archive is accessible only to list members who authenticate with their list member address and list password. public means the archive is accessible to the world, indexed in search engines, etc. These are the only two options. > Now when I turn it back to public and go to the "Go to list archives" link > on the admin page, I get directed to this address > > http://website.org/pipermail/Listname_website.org/ This is as it should be. It can be changed by setting PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL in mm_cfg.py. The default is PUBLIC_ARCHIVE_URL = 'http://%(hostname)s/pipermail/%(listname)s' but if your server is a shared hosted server, you certainly won't be able to change this. > and get a Page not found message This may be a cPanel issue (see the FAQ at <http://wiki.list.org/x/sYA9>). In any case, the web server needs to have something like Alias /pipermail/ $varprefix/archives/public/ where in cPanel, $varprefix is usually /usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/mailman > If I turn it to private and login using members email that gets emailed in > cleartext, then I can see my posts. > This is a mailing list for the exec committee of an organization, so we > want it to be private, but have an archive of our posts and correspondence.

You could always change the link on the listinfo -- Mark Sapiro <m...@msapiro.net> The highway is for gamblers, San Francisco Bay Area, California better use your sense - B.
