sharanf opened a new issue #471: Flagging Active and Inactive Mailing Lists
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-ponymail/issues/471
 
 
   Some of the older ASF mailing lists are no longer in use and are only there for display purposes. In theory would we not want to allow users to start any new threads or have users request subscriptions to them.  
   
   This enhancement is to look at adding a  flag to a mailing to indicate if the list is active (e.g. allowing new posts and subscription requests) or inactive (not allowing new posts or subscription requests).
   
   - If the list is active then the standard buttons to start a new thread, subscribe or unsubscribe to the list are displayed.
   - If the list is inactive instead of displaying the standard buttons for starting a new thread or subscribing, a message could be displayed saying that posts and subscriptions to the list are closed for the list.
