The one reason that I'm looking for an alternative to Mailman is the
lack of adequate integration with MTAs, which means that there is no

do is reject it at SMTP time, based on list post permissions and other configuations - I need to be able to query the configuration from my
MTA (Exim).
Ian, I think that alternative is going to be Mailman 3 :).
How do you see Exim asking that question? I can see several ways of
doing it in Mailman 3. 1) you could call into a Python library that
can answer that question; 2) you could use some kind of RPC such as
the REST api that Andrew's been talking about; 3) you could make the
appropriate queries directly to the Mailman database, which is based
on SQLite currently but can be anything that Storm can talk to.
Is that the kind of thing you want to do?
