Subject: [Lug-listowners] mladmin list moderation script
Message-ID: <20031115190643.GP12273@arachsys.com>

Those people with accounts on lug.org.uk can also now use a basic
list moderation script I've installed today called 'mladmin' which makes
it easy to discard lots of messages at once.

[A customised version of http://www.lpthe.jussieu.fr/~zeitlin/mladmin.html ]

Example usage:

> /usr/local/bin/mladmin slackware
Administrative password for slackware: 
Logging in to slackware... ok.
3 messages held for approval for the list slackware:

 N From                       Subject                    Reason
