Subject: [gentoo-server] Mailing List Manager that does not need to integrate tightly with the mail server?
Date: Wed, 25 May 2011 18:22:33 +0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <BANLkTinMhnD7xXT-Gpc_wiG5Ab4WTFFZ9Q@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

Okay, the CEO of the company had just asked me to set up a 'proper
mailing' list.

For reasons too long to describe here, we've been running with
hMailServer on Windows Server 2003. Unfortunately the 'distribution
list' facility on hMailServer is, to put it mildly, lacking.

hMailServer is scriptable, but rather than reinventing the wheel, I
guess I'll just create another GentooServer VM to handle this.

Now, for this purpose, I'm looking for a Mailing List Manager that
fulfills the following requirements:

  * Does not need access to the email spool directory
  * Does not need to integrate with the mail server, but can act as a
POP3 / IMAP client -- or --
  * Can act as an SMTP server (so that I can employ fetchmail to
actually perform the mail-pulling)
  * Support basic mailing list management commands (subscribe + unsubscribe)
  * Performs mail header mangling (e.g., prefixing Subject: with [ListName])
  * Allows for one-way (e.g., announcement-only) mailing list

*Not* required are:

  * Web-based management
  * Mail archival system
  * Integration with Active Directory and/or LDAP

Can anyone recommend something that fits my need?

Rgds,
