Anyone in the world may post to the list, simply by sending an email message to the list address.
Subscriber List Option
Allow posting by subscribers only.
Moderated List Option
Allow posting by the list moderator only. Posts made by subscribers go to the moderator, who then forwards the posts onto the list address for distribution. You may have multiple moderators. This type of list may be a moderated discussion list, or may be an announcement list (a/k/a newsletter).
Announcement List Option
Allow posting by the list administrator only. Also known as a newsletter, this type of list is the same as a moderated list, except all posts to the list are initiated by the list administrator.
Password Protection
Posts to the list can be controlled by use of a list password. Messages (emails) sent to the list address will not be distributed unless the list password is included in the subject of the message.
Poster's List
A list of email addresses authorized to post to the list, without moderation and/or without subscribing, can be designated.
Private Subscriptions
Only the list administrator can add subscribers to the list.
