Membership exposure

Who can view subscription list?

This setting dictates access to the subscription list via the web.

Anyone: this allows anyone in the world to browse by and take a look at 
who the members of your list are. Never ever use this setting unless you 
are trying to say "I have contempt for all of my list members and hope 
that they get spammed out of their minds."

List members: this is the traditional setting for most lists, allowing 
participants to see who the other people on the list are but blocking 
view to the general public. This settings can be overridden by 
individual users who have set the "hide" option for their account.

List admin only: only the administrator can see the list members.


Show member addrs so they're not directly recognizable as email addrs?

This is a nice feature that discourages theft of lists: the membership 
list does not show actually addresses but instead shows participants as 
"username at foo.com". This should block most harvesters if they manage 
to get through to the listing.

2.9 The Archiving Options Category

Mailman comes with a built-in web-based archiver called /Pipermail/, 
although it can be configured to use external, third party archivers.

*archive*
    This option tells Mailman whether to archive messages it receives or
    not, regardless of whether Pipermail or a third party archiver is
    used. Turn this off if you don't want to archive messages.

    Note that senders can control whether their own posts are archived,
    on an individual per-message basis. If the posted message has a
    X-No-Archive: header (regardless of value), or a X-Archive: header
    with a value of |No| (case insensitive), then the message will not
    be archived, although it will be treated as normal in all other ways.
