<h3>Mailman, the GNU Mailing List Manager</h3>

Mailman is software to help manage electronic mail discussion lists.
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.
See the <a href="features.html">features page</a> for more detail.

<p>Mailman is free software.  It is distributed under the
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html">GNU General Public
License</a>.  The canonical Mailman home page is at
<a href="http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/">
www.gnu.org/software/mailman</a>, which is mirrored at
<a href="http://www.list.org/">www.list.org</a> and
<a href="http://sf.net/projects/mailman">SourceForge</a>.  Mailman
is written in the <a href="http://www.python.org/">Python</a>
programming language, with a little bit of C code for security.

<p>By the way, the name of this software is spelled <em>Mailman</em>
with a capital leading <em>M</em> and a lowercase second <em>m</em>.
It is incorrect to spell it "MailMan" (i.e. you should not use
StudlyCaps).

<h3>Current Version</h3>

<p>Version
(<!-VERSION--->2.1b1<!-VERSION--->,
released on
<!-DATE--->16-Mar-2002<!-DATE--->)
is the current development release of the next version of Mailman.
Although, stable, it
should <strong>not</strong> be 
used in production environments.  Instead, please use <a href=
"http://sourceforge.net/project/shownotes.php?release_id=82688"
>version 2.0.9</a>, the latest stable release.

<h3>Acknowledgements</h3>

<p>The <em>Mailman Cabal</em> would like to thank
<a href="http://www.control.com/">Control.com</a> for their
sponsorship of new Mailman 2.1 features such as the topic filters,
external membership sources, and "virtual" mailing lists.

<p>Please also see the ACKNOWLEDGMENTS file for the list of
contributors, bug hunters, big idea people, and others who have helped
immensely with Mailman's development.

<p><em>We have a extensive wish list and welcome anyone else who would
like to contribute!</em>

<h3>Papers</h3>

<p>A number of papers and other material presented at
<a href="http://www.foretec.com/python/workshops/1998-11/proceedings.html">
the 7th International Python Conference</a> and the 12th Usenix LISA
conference are available <a href="mailman-docs.tar.gz">here</a>.

<h3>Logos</h3>

you can use to link back to the Mailman website.
