A CMS (Content management system) can, in practice, actually address
vastly different needs. Then you get into the whole "plug-ins" thing
which further convolutes what actually can be done with any of the
existing CMS solutions.

A year and a half ago, I looked at, installed and tested an number of
different CMS's for sake of adding a user message system (blogs and news
discussion) to the non-profit Leukemia fund I worked on. Though PHP
makes me nervous, drupal was my favorite from that ilk. Running
slashcode is probably the most battle tested solution available.

The problem is I've got no clue how or what you used Mambo for, so if
you can state your needs, it would be the fast path to viable
suggestions. 

Since the site is obviously pre-existing, what kind of back-end database
are you running?

Kind Regards,
