Mailman
is a popular mailing list script. Mailing lists are an ideal tool
for communication between far-flung participants and can be about
anything you want. Mailman allows you to set up a mailing list with
a large number of configurable options, such as who is on the list,
where mailing lists messages are sent, and whether you include welcoming
messages to new subscribers.
The
Mailman documentation, which is incorporated into its Administration
panel, is clear and helpful, and should be referred to for all questions
about using the script. The instructions in this section deal with
how to set up, modify, and delete a Mailman mailing list from your
CPanel. You can can also refer to the Mailman
home page for more information.
Note:
It is a good idea to be aware of spam and its definition
before setting up a mailing list - refer to E-mail
Filtering for more information.
