I think the subject line is the only thing that matters but I also want to emphasize that unlike mailman2, you can just have a central account for all of your mailing lists. Confirm your email when registering a new user (which you can just click on a link) and everything will be pretty straightforward afterwards.

Hi,

I've started to play with the interface, but questioning a bit the instructions given (for clarity purposes) when you're signing up for a list:

Before you can start using GNU Mailman at this site, you must first confirm
that this is your email address.  You can do this by replying to this message,
keeping the Subject header intact.

Should there be additional instructions on if something is needed in the body of that reply email, or that it can be empty and just keep the subject line the same?

Cheers,

Deb

Indeed this is great news. I have subscribed to a couple of mailing
lists that are already using v3. And it really makes it easy to
manage. Thanks for working on this.

One question. I subscribe to this list via the NNTP bridge hosted at
gmane.io. Will the change make any difference at that end? I mean do the
administrators of Gmane require any change?
