=>Hello GNHLUG!
=>
=>  A project has been started to enhance GNHLUG's Internet presence.
=>The initial focus of this project will be to configure and deploy a
=>new server. The plan is the server will eventually host the GNHLUG web
=>and mailing list servers, as well as be home to future GNHLUG ideas.
=>
...
=>
=>  Initially, things we will be using include: SSH, Apache, Sendmail,
=>TWiki, GNU Mailman.
=>
=>  In the future, we may also use: Postfix, PHP, Python, Zope, Plone,
=>*SQL, and whatever else brings something useful to the table.

May I strongly urge you to not use Mailman and to instead consider 
Majordomo2 (see: http://www.mj2.org) 

It is a better mailinglist manager. It suffers from not getting enough use 
compared to what Mailman was able to achieve with Red Hat having been the 
promoter. I use it here on syslang for the dozen odd lists I run. My 
biggest list is about 800 people and it works really well.
