Majordomo should work with no problem. It's jsut a great big
ball of perl scripts (one or two binary wrappers for dealing with things
like suid operations).
Majordomo is on the RedHat CD's.
Mailman is one that I just got and haven't had a chance to look
at, yet. Its got a web interface allowing people to subscribe and
unsubscribe via a web page. You can do that with majordomo, but it's
a major pain'o. Mailman also claims better bounce handling and recovery
(majordomo basically has none).
Mailman comes in the RedHat 6.0 E-Commerce package.
There's also listproc, listserv, and smartlist(?) out there,
but I have no experience with them beyond using them as a subscriber.
Sorry, I don't have URL's.
