Title: recommended mailing list software
Post by: peterhocking on February 10, 2011, 04:26:44 AM: Hi

I want to setup mailing lists on my SME Server & am looking for recommendtations for ease of use.

We'll have aroiund half a dozen mailing lists with no more than 100 email addresses in any of them.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Peter

I'd read a couple of posts about it having issues when run under later versions of 7.5.X, hence my request. :)

Fast and reliable.

I use ezmlm, which works a treat.

AFAIK it should if you update to the latest tip of SME 8.0 beta 6 (also including updates in smeupdates-testing (and perhaps smetest).

Are you confirming that Ezmlm works on SME 8? Even though the Contribs QA page says it doesn't?
