Thanks.

Now, I'd *love* to have this list move to Mailman, as the sunsite
folks offered (at least it sounds like it should be possible).

What do you think, oh people of this list? ;-)

One of the best features (for users) of Mailman is (from Karsten's summary):

 - Web based list administration for nearly all tasks.  Web based
   subscriptions and user configuration management.  A
   customizable "home page" for each mailing list.

Bye, J

Hi

Recently, we have deployed Mailman on SunSITE.dk, and all new mailing
lists will have the freedom to choose between ezmlm and mailman.

In our oppinion, ezmlm er best for rather large lists (like 200
members and more) with minimal administration, while mailman provides
more features and a very nice web interface to both administration,
members and archive functionality. However, Mailman is know to be
running even very large lists.

If any exsisting list would like to move to Mailman or requests more
information, then please contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]


Mailmans features:

   Mailman has most of the standard features you'd expect in a mailing
   list manager, and more:

- Web based list administration for nearly all tasks.  Web based
  subscriptions and user configuration management.  A customizable
  "home page" for each mailing list.

- Privacy features such as moderation, open and closed list
  subscription policies, and private membership rosters.

- Automatic web based archiving built-in with support for private
  and public archives, and hooks for external archivers.

- Per-user configuration optional digest delivery for either
  MIME-compliant or RFC 934 style "plain text" digests.

- Integrated mail/Usenet gateways.

- Integrated auto-replies.

- Majordomo-style email based commands.

- Integrated bounce detection within an extensible framework.

- Integrated spam detection.
