Dear Mr Hochstein,
Thank you very much for providing the link. I'm afraid the same misunderstanding as with Marc Sapiro has occurred here. I'm aware that there are three different styles to choose from when creating a mailing list. However, the setting "Settings > Archiving > Archive policy" can be configured independently of the list creation process.
Still, it would be beneficial if the default value after creating a list without an archive were not "Public archive", but rather "Do not archive this list". This would help prevent list administrators from being tempted to immediately enable a public archive when setting up an archive later—especially in cases where the list is intended to be private.
Kind regards, Markus Grandpré

currently, when I create a new mailing list with MM3 the value for "Archive policy" is always set to "Public archives". I'd like to change the default value for "Archive policy" to "Do not archive this list". How can I do this?
Perhaps <https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/7...> has some pointers how to accomplish that?
