I am interested to know what those legacy reasons for not using Mailman are? |
| 2 |
Mailman performs significantly better under large volume since version 2.1 |
| 3 |
was released (and it seems to suffice for the large volume FreeBSD lists ... |
| 4 |
which have been migrated from majordomo). |

Thanks in advance, |

Folks -- |
| 17 |
|
| 18 |
I'm curious what all you use for mailing list management. Right now, we're |
| 19 |
using ezmlm-idx and, while being very powerful, it is decidedly unfriendly |
| 20 |
and difficult to administer. It's also no longer being actively developed. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
The program needs to support multiple languages, including multi-byte |
| 23 |
character sets (asian languages). It also needs to scale relatively well |
| 24 |
as we currently send out ~250,000 messages a day or so across ~50 lists. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Also, and this is key, it may not *depend* on any one particular mail |
| 27 |
server. ezmlm-idx all but requires qmail. I'd like a solution that is MTA |
| 28 |
independent. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Finally, for various legacy reasons, mailman will not work for us. |

Thanks. |
