Mailman 2.1

thanx for all the help everyone!
after taking a break to drink a greyhound and consult with scsi, the
resident feline supervisor, i hit it again last night and seem to have
a list running.

now...
heheh
how do i make it so that people can subscribe or unsubscribe thru email
only..? it looks like a web interface is how its default to run.
after setting everything up.. it may not do what i want !
