Re: [cobalt-users] mailing all the siteadmins

["Dylan" <dylan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi again,

thanks for the posts all, I was also wondering whether any one knew how to
'close' the mailing list so only the admin user can send messages. The raq3
has some options to  disallow external posting but is there some way to
totally deny all posting to it except from one user? I have a raq2 Id like
to do this with ideally.

thanks again,
dylan
