Overview
Learn how to adjust your mailing list privacy settings.
Critical Concepts
- If you would like your Mailman list to not be published on the list of public lists you can change your list’s privacy settings.
- Note that this does not guarantee that your list will not receive spam, nor will it necessarily reduce the amount of spam your list already receives if spammers already have your list’s address.
Steps to Take
- Log in to the list's administration page: https://mailman.ucsd.edu/mailman/admin/ListName-l with your Active Directory username and password (replace ListName with the actual name of your list. The final character is a lowercase letter 'L' for 'list.')
- Under Configuration Categories, select Privacy Options
- Set Advertise this list when people ask what lists are on this machine to No and click on Submit Your Changes.
