[Icann-see] Fwd: Open archive?

[Dusan Stojicevic]

Dear all,

Thanks for this question.
The archive, in a requested form of a link, currently is only available 
to system moderator. The link can be found here: 
http://mail-server.rnids.rs/mailman/listinfo/icann-see
The reason for this is that software provide only two options: public 
archive or archive available for system moderator.
All members have their own archive and software that we use (same as 
f.e. ICANN) allow only public archive (f.e. 
https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/ua-discuss).

For the second question, answer is simple. Mailman (software) deals only 
with a list of e-mail addresses, not profiles (names, countries, 
roles... whatever), and this list is available only to the system 
administrator and cannot be public. The reason for this is  very simple 
- security reasons, f.e. this list of mail addresses can be used very 
simple for SPAM messages.

FYI, we have 70 members.

Regards,
Dusan
