[thelist] mailing software

[Mike Rudberg]

Well, there is MailMan (http:www.list.org), and Majordomo
(http:/www.majordomo.org).  Both use scripting languages.  MailMan - Python
while Majordomo - Perl.  Both require little/no programming experience and
offer extreme flexibility.  Plus, the fact that both are Open Sourced and
free software make either of these a good choice.  This, assuming of course,
you're looking for packages which offer the source code easily human
readable rather just the executable.

Best,

Mike
