To: python-list@python.org Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Mailman 2.0.1 From: barry@digicool.com (Barry A. Warsaw) Date: Fri, 5 Jan 2001 12:51:34 -0500 I'm please to announce the 2.0.1 release of Mailman, the GNU Mailing List Manager. Mailman is released under the GNU General Public License (GPL). Version 2.0.1 fixes a few bugs in Mailman 2.0 and is being released as both a gzip'd source tarball and as a patchfile. Mailman is software to help manage electronic mail discussion lists, much like Majordomo or Smartmail. Mailman gives each mailing list a unique web page and allows users to subscribe, unsubscribe, and change their account options over the web. Even the list manager can administer his or her list entirely via the web. Mailman has most of the features that people want in a mailing list management system, including built-in archiving, mail-to-news gateways, spam filters, bounce detection, digest delivery, and so on. Mailman is compatible with most web servers, web browsers, and mail servers. It should run on any Unix-like operating system. Mailman 2.0.1 requires Python 1.5.2 or newer. To install Mailman from source, you will need a C compiler. For more information on Mailman, including links to file downloads, please see the following mirrors: http://mailman.sourceforge.net http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/mailman.html http://www.list.org [only the sourceforge site is up-to-date at the moment, the others will be updated soon.] There are email lists (managed by Mailman, of course!) for both Mailman users and developers. See the web sites above for details. Enjoy, -Barry -- http://www.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
