The Discussion Forum Interface for Members

The discussion forum interface allows those who are not ListManager administrators to interact with mailing lists, or forums, through the web interface instead of by email. Server administrators have access to see all lists and read all messages in the discussion forum interface. However, to post messages to a particular list the server administrator must join the list like any other member. For more information, see Accessing and Logging into the Discussion Forum Interface.
