<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>

|
<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 allowed me to continue the project. I will try to incorporate 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>

<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 and 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>
