[Mailman-Users] Can't find some fundemental documentation

[Orion (Steve Pirk)]

I believe the "options" for this function are under the
Mail-News and News-Mail gateways link in the Admin menus.
http://yourhost.com/mailman/admin/yourlist/

Not sure where any other documentation resides (except
people on this list :-)
