There is much to be said for this -- so I'll be curious to hear about what you try and find as next-generation MLM competitors. One was mentioned upthread that I hadn't heard of before, which is cool to hear about: It's been distressing to have to choose among just Mailman, Sympa, or Majordomo2[0] -- and good to hear of additional options.[1]
Personally, I gave up on Chapman's majordomo 1.9x in 1999, because the writing was already on the wall that it was extremely likely to be unmaintained.
[0] Issued under a slight variant of Apache Public License. By the way, any reason why you didn't try it? It works with any Perl 5.004_01 or later.
[1] Some folks like ezmlm, mentioned here for completeness, albeit I personally don't care for it.
