I changed the list so the archives are private, accessible only by subscribed members of the list. It's been awhile, but think I did it by setting the "Notebook" to "private." An small quibble: why can't the archives be called archives in the list configuration? Makes it confusing for non-tech people like me.

We are starting a list for a subset of the disabled population and they are concerned about privacy aspects. I know the obvious: make it confidential, disable review, subscription by owner; but, is there something else I should be aware of? Can/should the archives be disabled? Yes, I will explain that when something leaves your computer, nothing is guaranteed--I'm just concerned about the list. ================================================================ Elliott Parker [log in to unmask] List Owner, SEASIA-L and CARR-L Department of Journalism Central Michigan University Mt.
