EXAMPLE:
configset GLOBAL info_access = open

The info_access configuration setting is used to restrict access 
to the info command.  

The following five values are supported:

  open          -  Anyone can use the info command.

  open+password -  Anyone registered at this domain can use the info
                   command if a personal password is supplied.

  list          -  Anyone subscribed to a mailing list can use the
                   info command for that list.

  list+password -  Anyone subscribed to a mailing list can use the
                   info command for that list if a personal password 
                   is supplied.

  closed        -  Only the list administrators can use the info command.

This setting can be overridden by rules for the info command in the 
access_rules configuration setting.

This setting determines who can use the info command to retrieve
the info document for a list.  The info document normally
resides in a list's private file space, and therefore can also be
accessed by the get and index commands, but only by list administrators.

If an info document does not exist for the list, the info command
will cause a default document to be retrieved from the DEFAULT or
GLOBAL pseudo-list, or from the stock files supplied by Majordomo.

An administrative password can be used to issue the info command,
regardless of the value of this setting.

Any rules in the access_rules setting related to the info command  
will take precedence over the value of this setting.

The info document is normally attached to the welcome message which is
sent to new subscribers when they join a mailing list.
