        I would disagree about the "no maintenance".  Every time you add a
list, you need to add several aliases to the sendmail aliases file,
rebuild the db from that file, edit and create several files in
Majordomo's home directory (with the correct permissions), and finally
configure the mailing list with the 'new config' command.

        But, it is very powerful, and fairly popular (making support easy
to find).
