Hi @jeena @brennen

the new list has been created. The thing is that at list creation you can only enter a single initial admin (Jeena).

So what I did was:

• create new list, add Jeena as admin, which includes an automatic email sending a random initial password
• log into admin interface, add Brennen as secondary admin and set list description to "discussion of local development environments and topics"
• run shell script that resets password and automatically mails a new one to all list admins

So Jeena you should have received 2 mails and the password in the second one is the one that should work and you Brennen should have received just one mail, the second one.

Keep in mind there is just one password to share and it's not tied to a user account. So you can optionally reset it if you want but need to tell each other about it.

All other list options are default and up to you to change as you see fit. This includes whether there should be archives, who can subscribe how etc.

The link to the admin page is in the comment above. Feel free to also set the list description ("A terse phrase identifying this list") to something better.

You can set anything as you like, even HTML on the listinfo page, just do not completely hide the mere existence of the list.

Cheers

Thanks!
