Web-based e-mail using mailman?
Hi,
I've just subscribed to this list, and since there's no FAQ, I'm posting this question to the list:
Does mailman provide a way for a website to offer Hotmail-style web-based e-mail to its users? That would be a very useful feature, i my opinion. I have been looking for such a (free) tool, but there doesn't seem to be one available.
Thanks and regards,
Ganesh C. Prasad

Mailman is a mailing list manager -- it only handles mailing lists.
There are free packages out there that provide hotmail-style mail. http://freshmeat.net is a good resource for that, although it is currently down (it is hosted by RedHat which is moving offices right now). I recall seeing at least two or three packages to offer such functionality.

Hello all. For subscribe messages and such, mailman uses the "Sender:" rather than "From:" this is bad. Netscape and many other mailers don't let you set the "Sender:" and mine is _always_ wrong.
My user name is "clark" on my linux box at home, I'm using "mail.mindspring.com" for my SMTP server. Somehow... god know how, I get "Sender: clark@mindspring.com" and there is _no_ way I can change that (that I know of).
Now. I'm _not_ clark@mindspring.com , yet when I subscribe and stuff, it sends errors to this poor bloke.
Thus, I respectfully request that Mailman use "From:" if it is there.
Thank you!

P.S. I you don't believe me, check the headers for this message.

Or, at least, make it an option. I have somewhat
the same situation here. I subscribe to lists using
my email address (castro@usmatrix.net) but I usually
use my linux box to send email, so my Sender goes
with the name of the box and then Mailman does not
recognize me as myself (oh well). :)
