Mailman Made Easy

Mailman is the free software contender to mail-server products such as Lyris, which feature GUI-driven administration, user-level access to preferences, and built-in archives, digests, and the like.

It has a few notable weaknesses, like that it can't easily be made aware of virtual hosts (although with a good dose of Apache configuration and some virtusertable tweaks it could probably be made to work.) I won't discuss that in this article, however, so let's not dawdle.
