Change a mailing list password

You can use this interface interface to change the password for a mailing list without the old password. This is useful, for example, to recover control of your mailing list if you forget or lost the password.

To change the password for a mailing list, perform the following steps:
1.In the Current Lists section of the interface, scroll to the name of the mailing list.
You can also enter a keyword in the Search text box and click Go.
2.In the Functions column, click the link next to the name of the mailing list. A new interface will appear.

Notes:The system grades the password that you enter on a scale of 100 points. 0 indicates a weak password, while 100 indicates a very secure password.
Some web hosts require a minimum password strength. A green password Strength meter indicates that the password is equal to or greater than the required password strength.
Click Password Generator to generate a strong password. For more information, read our Password Generator documentation.

Important:
Use a secure password. A secure password is not a dictionary word, and it contains uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols.

4.Click Change Password to activate the new password.

Delegate a mailing list
