xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">All majordomo commands are
sent to majordomo@yourdomain.com.


All commands should be sent in the body of the message - NOT
in the
subject.

<b>CONFIGURING A MAILINGLIST:</b>
To configure a list, first retrieve the lists configuration
file by sending
a plain text email (NOT HTML-formatted!) to
majordomo@yourdomain.com with
the following in the body of the message: 

<i>config list-name list-password</i>

where:
- list-name is the name of your mailing list
- list-password is the maintenance password you provided
when you created
the list.

<b>Note: Initial password:</b>
On some servers, the initial password will be set to
<b>list-name.admin</b>
(where list-name is the name of the mailinglist, for
example:
&quot;customers.admin&quot; if you created a
&quot;customers&quot;
mailinglist) - even if you entered another password during
the setup. If
the real password doesn&#039;t work, use list-name.admin
instead.

<b>AN EXAMPLE: Retrieving the current config</b>
-----------------
If you created a mailinglist called &quot;mylist&quot; with
admin password
&quot;drowssap&quot; and your domain was
&quot;example.com&quot; you&#039;d
send a plain text email (NOT HTML-formatted!) to
majordomo@example.com with
this in the body:

<i>config mylist drowssap</i>
-----------------

Majordomo will reply with the configuration file for the
list. 
The configuration file is rather self explanatory and has
many comments
explaining the various commands.

<b>CHANGING THE CURRENT CONFIG</b>
Copy the contents of the email to your favorite text editor
and make your
configuration changes.

Compose a new email to majordomo@yourdomain.com with the
following in the
body of the message: 

<i>newconfig list-name list-password</i>

and paste the edited configuration text after the command. 


After you send the email, Majordomo will reply with the
results. 

If the configuration change was successful, you should
receive a message
similar to this: 
&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; newconfig list-name list-password
New config for list list-name accepted.

otherwise the reply will specify why the command failed. 
If the command fails, check to make sure your email client
is sending email
as plain text (not html) and that it is not automatically
wrapping the
contents of the email.</content>
