Mail List Name.
You may change the name of the list here. Click the link [Cha-nge], shown next to the name of the list, to change the name of the mailing list. Enter the new name in the option New Name and click Change Name.
Remember that changing the name will not change the name of the mailing list appearing in old list archives. When you change the name of the list, all existing mail aliases and virtual domain addresses created for this list will be rewritten by the Secure List Port.

Domain Name
You can change the domain name of the list. Select a new virtual domain from the drop down menu. You will need to have created a virtual domain using the Secure Mail Suite before being able to use it here.

You may select whether the list is moderated or not. If the list is moderated, all emails sent to the list will need to be approved by list moderators before they are sent to all members in the mailing list.
List Owner
You can change the email address of the list owner here.
CC List

Subscription Type
Subscription type can be Open, Closed or Require Confirmation. If the list is Open, anybody can subscribe to the list, without approval from the list administrators. If the list is Closed, new members will need to be approved by the list administrators before they are subscribed to the list. If the list subscription requires confirmation, new members requesting subscription will be asked to confirm their subscription request in a second email, so that their email addresses can be verified.
Unsubscription Type
Unsubscription Type can be Open, Closed or Require Confirmation. These options are similar to the subscription type.
Administrivia
If administrivia is set to Yes, subscription/unsubscription attempt notifications will be sent to list administrators. If set to no, the notifications will not be sent to the administrators.
Attachment Handling
You can prohibit attachments in posts to this mailing list. If you select Yes, attachments will be stripped from posts to this list, according to the criteria defined below.

By default, when an attachment is stripped, a small notification is appended to the message body informing the recipient that there were attachments with this mail. If you opt to remove attachments silently, the notification will not be added to posts when attachments are stripped from them.

Click Update Settings to save the configuration.
