I didn't say Mailman natively could be done from the CLI. You're correct, you do have to use other packages as well in combination to make this approach work, but it is! possible to do. It's honestly probably more trouble than it's worth, but there you have it, in a nutshell. I do acknowledge your concerns initially though.

You must be talking about a different Mailman, as on my site I get:
No manual entry for mailman

Mailman 2.x, at least, stores its data in Python pickles, not SQL databases. Although I know about a third-party command-line tool (called mailmanadmin) which does most moderation from the shell or cron, it’s still not as beauteous as the Ecartis approach of copy-pasting moderation commands into an email message and sending them off; you still need to connect to the remote machine and run the tool. Perhaps Mailman 3.x is different, but it’s still under development, so not for me.

Anyway, to keep this relevant, Mailman is how this list started. Perhaps it would be a better place for it to end up. OS X can handle Mailman’s interface quite nicely using Safari and VoiceOver.
