6. DIR/public handling -- ezmlm-get -p/-P switches

6.1 Functionality with DIR/public removed

Create a remote admin list with moderators as before. Remove DIR/remote making it a non-remote list. Remove DIR/public making it a non-public list. User requests to subscribe/unsubscribe/help/get/thread/index fail with 'I've been told to reject all requests' error. Other failures for non-indexed or non-archived lists. Moderator requests fail as in 4.1.1. Requests for digests succeed (for archived lists configured with ezmlm-get).

6.2 Touch DIR/remote

User requests fail as before (4.1.1). Moderator requests succeed -> -tc./-vc. reply. Moderator reply results in (un)sub of target. Moderator requests for -get/-thread/-index succeed. Requests for digests succeed.

6.3 Add the -P command line switch to ezmlm-get

Same as 4.2.

6.4 Change the ezmlm-get switch to -p

User requests to (un)subscribe and help fail, but archive retrieval succeeds. Modertor requests succeed.

6.5 Touch DIR/public - retain the -p switch

User (un)sub requests succeed, but archive retrieval fails.

6.6 Change the ezmlm-get switch to -P

User (un)sub requests and archive retrieval requests succeed.
