<div class="push">
<h2>Overview</h2>
<p><font class="ez">ezmlm-web</font> is a web interface for the administration of <a href="http://ezmlm.org">ezmlm</a> mailing lists. It allows complete control over their configuration by using a web browser. User-based access control relieves administrators from the burden of managing all their mailing lists on their own.</p>
<p>Just take a look at some <a href="https://systemausfall.org/trac/ezmlm-web/wiki/ScreenShots/ezmlm-web-3.0">screenshots</a> or try out the <a href="https://systemausfall.org/toolforge/ezmlm-web/demo">demo installation</a> (use 'test' as username and password).</p>
</div>
<div class="push">
<h2>How can <font class="ez">ezmlm-web</font> help you?</h2>
<p><font class="ez"><a href="http://www.ezmlm.org">ezmlm</a></font> uses a mainly
command line interface for the creation and maintainence
of mailing lists. While this is very convenient for the average systems
administrator who is used to such interfaces, it restrains him from transferring
administrative work to users who want to manage a community on their own.</p>
<p><font class="ez">ezmlm-web</font> is an attempt to hide the complexities of managing a mailing list
behind an intuative, easy to use web based interface. The idea behind this
is threefold. Firstly just about everyone these days can use a web browser,
or can learn very quickly. Secondly it provides almost complete platform
independence on the client side - there are GUI web browsers available for
every major modern operating system. Thirdly, and perhaps more importantly,
it makes easy remote administration a real possibility.</p>
<p><font class="ez">ezmlm-web</font> allows the user to easily add and remove
mailing list subscribers, create and delete mailing lists as well as alter
the configuration of existing mailing lists. Almost every aspect of the
mailing list is controlable through the web front end, allowing the list
user to do most things without the assistance of the systems administrators.</p>
</div>
<div class="push">
<h2>Features</h2>
Some of the important features that <font class="ez">ezmlm-web</font> offers are;
<ul>
<li><font class="feature">Full Virtual Host Support</font>

<h2>History</h2>
<p>The original author of <font class="ez">ezmlm-web</font> is Guy Antony Halse. He maintained it up to
version 2.1. By then it was functionally complete and convenient.</p>
<p>Since September 02000 no new releases were published.</p>
<p>In January 02005 Guy handed the project over to me (Lars Kruse). I incorporated the suggestions
that were sent to Guy so far. Additional security improvements and translations will be integrated.</p>
<p>Your suggestions are welcome and will improve <font class="ez">ezmlm-web</font> whenever possible.</p>
</div>
<div class="push">
