Not that I disagree (oh, no! It sounds cool! :) but wasn't there something
about Mailman had to be coded in Python ? Or is a PHP frontend OK ? Or only
if it's optional, or not included in the distribution ?

I am still looking at HyperMail/pipermail, but if these things are in the
running, I might just do some cleanup and fix some of the performance
problems. (Like Hypermail choking on attachements and stuff.) So it's still
useable for the bare-bones kind of server ;) If not, well, I'll take some
more time and not worry too much about features such as searchable indexes
and such.
