Web Interface Information

The web interface is available by following the User Configuration link above. The web interface is only available via SSL. My apologies to those people without SSL capability, but this choice was made in favour of user account security.

In order to manage your account via the web interface, you need a password that is associated with your primary email address. If you don't know what this password is, the web interface can be used to reset your password (it mails you a new password at your registered primary address). If you no longer receive email at your registered address and you have forgotten (or otherwise don't know) your password, contact your list administrator for assistance.

Common Tasks

The most common tasks performed with the web interface are described below.

• Subscribing to a Public List:
  1. Go to the User Configuration page, and click on the Subscribe to Mailing Lists link near the top of the page.
  2. Click on the name of the list to which you wish to subscribe.
  3. Fill in the address and name boxes, then hit the subscribe button.
• Subscribing to a Private List:
  1. This cannot be done via the web interface; use the mail interface instead.
• Changing your primary address:
  1. If you have not yet logged in, go to the User Configuration page and click on the Sign In link near the top left.

  4. Type your new address in the New Address box.

• Configuring majordomo to recognise multiple addresses as your own. Do this if you want to be able to send from multiple email accounts, but have your list messages go only to your primary address:
  1. If you have not yet logged in, go to the User Configuration page and click on the Sign In link near the top left.
  2. Click on Unsubscribe or Change Settings near the top of the page.
  3. Scroll down to Other Email Addresses
  4. Type your new address in the Other Address box.
  5. Click the alias button.
  6. Respond to any confirmation email that majordomo may send you.

Note that the web interface has its own extensive help system, so nothing more will be said about it here.
