hello all, i received the following email today from mailman-owner at einste
intoolkit.org:

This is a reminder, sent out once a month, about your
einsteintoolkit.org mailing list memberships.  It includes your
subscription info and how to use it to change it or unsubscribe from a
list.

You can visit the URLs to change your membership status or
configuration, including unsubscribing, setting digest-style delivery
or disabling delivery altogether (e.g., for a vacation), and so on.

In addition to the URL interfaces, you can also use email to make such
changes.  For more info, send a message to the '-request' address of
the list (for example, mailman-request at einsteintoolkit.org) containing
just the word 'help' in the message body, and an email message will be
sent to you with instructions.

If you have questions, problems, comments, etc, send them to
mailman-owner at einsteintoolkit.org.  Thanks!

why is my password shown and sent unencrypted in this mail (i removed this
in the copied part above)? isn't that dangerous? i have to change the
password for the mailing list now, as i am using it in other places as
well...

best wishes,

Vassili
