Hi,
Try "sendmail advanced message server", from Sendmail Inc. See
www.sendmail.com for more infos. They announce it for Linux and
Solaris, but they probably also have BSD versions available (sendmail
is a Berkely software, after all!).
Note that you can get all this stuff in the open source world, but that'll
require some tweaking (recompile sendmail with ldap support, run one
of the available ldap directories, install a web adm package like "webmin",
and make all those work together). Contact me offlist if you're interested
by a full open-source version (I have to do it, but for BSD)
I don't have time to sell the features:), but
- it supports LDAP
- it has a web admin interface
- it supports mailinglists (I guess you mean aliases that expand to many users)
- sendmail is the most widely used MTA, and is thus quite "known". While it has
a reputation from those old bad days, it's a good choice today.
- it is compliant with the standards. no hidden microsoft extensions:)
You can also go for qmail, but you'll need the ldap patch (see
http://www.nrg4u.com/).
dunno whether postfix supports LDAP.
Note that your query is somewhat misleading: If you use LDAP, then I'd see
mailinglist
admin through LDAP, not through the MTA. so your HR guys should have access to
the directory administration, not the MTA configuration. Or am I missing
something.
cheers,
mouss
