Looking for examples of Mailman usage for Usenet gatewaying particularly for moderated newsgroups. I can see the obvious example of comp.lang.python, but maybe there are others ?
I am evaluating Mailman... currently mirroring articles on a local test newsgroup. Thus far, it proves impressive.
I have used Russ Allbery's robust News::Gateway toolkit, http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/software/gateway/ along with ezmlm and Majordomo.
Mailman seems to tie a lot of things together, eg. integrated web interface, archiving. It's also user-friendly. On the downside, there does not seem to be much scope for header manipulation at present, eg. headers like Path/XRef/NNTP- are mailed.
