[vps-mail] Mailman Moderator vs admin



I'm setting up a announce only mailman list (version 2.1.3). I don't seem to
have the ability to set up a moderator. I can log in as admin and change my
password for the administrator. I 'think' I can do the same for the
moderator. However, when I log off and try to log back on as moderator, I
get the error, Authorization failed. What am I doing wrong?

I assume I'm the admin with permissions to set up and change all aspects of
the list. I want to have someone else (client) to be able to moderate the
list, to add & remove members and to send announcements. It seems to be all
or none; either they are admin and can do everything or can't get in to do
anything.

Here's what I'd like to do:
1. Set up a list and be able to keep the client from making list-crashing
changes (admin stuff).
2. Give the clients helpers limited access to be able to modify the member
list without worrying about messing up something inside.

I assume that is what the moderator/admin does. Where'd I go wrong?

Thanks,

Jim Smith
