Actually itis the only product that my host offers for mailing lists. 
It is a damn good program in all respects other than the programmers
decision to force this on us and wrongfully cite it as following the
standards.  The standards make it optional not forced.  Hell I like
Mailman but just wisk they would change that and stop telling us things
that are not true when we ask how to make it work the way we want.
