The mailing list for listmasters using Sympa

["Chris Andrews" <address@concealed>]

Ahh... I never thought of that - the simplest way is to only allow owners to
see the subscription lists.  After adding this include scenario I would then
make all the non-owner only review scenarios to invisible and set the
default to equal the owner only one.  Thanks for the info.

You can block anyone except the list owners to review subscribers by 
adding a new scenario rule to any review scenario. Just create a file 
named include.review.header with the following rule :

!is_owner([listname],[sender]) smtp,md5,smime -> reject

This rule will be applied first to any scenario.

Where to locate this file ? This is described here :
