This documentation needs work. See "Help improve this page" in the sidebar.

These options are configurable for each active Mailman list:

Admin web page
Mailman admin web page. The URL must be reachable from your Drupal web server. It's recommended to use the https protocol if your Mailman server supports it. Set empty to disable this list. Example: https://www.mysite.com/cgi-bin/mailman/admin/mylist.
Mailman version
Select your Mailman software version (it should be displayed on the Mailman web interface footer). Try different settings if you realize that digest and nomail subscription do not work correctly.
Admin web password
Mailman administrator web password.
Only invite users
Just invite new users instead of subscribing them immediately? This option overrides the "Confirm" option in the Privacy options->Subscription rules->Subscribe_policy field in the Mailman admin web interface.
Notify users
Send welcome messages to the new subscriber?
Notify mailman administrators
Send notifications of new subscription to the list owner?
Sync with roles
Subscribe and unsubscribe users to this list based on their roles and the list permissions associated with those roles. This action will be performed every time a user role is changed. Note that one effect of this feature is that unsubscribed users with the Can subscribe to [list name] permission will be subscribed to the synced list without consent.
Default choice (Yes/No)
Should the default choice be "yes" or "no" for this list in the user subscription form.
Allow unsubscribe
Allow users to unsubscribe from the list? Failing to check this will set the Default choice option to "yes" and force the user to be subscribed to this list.
Allow temporary disable
Allow users to temporarily disable delivery?
Allow digest
Allow users to set their subscriptions to digest mode?
Description
A brief description of this mailing list. This text will be displayed in the subscriptions page.
