    Usability and efficiency improvements of the (GNU Mailman) mailing lists Rudy Borgstede ([email protected]) System and Network Engineering University of Amsterdam July 5, 2008 Versions Version Date Changes 0.0.1 18 May 2008 First setup of the report 0.0.2 9 June 2008 Release Candidate 1 of the project proposal 0.1.1 17 June 2008 A rewrite of the document because of the change of project result. The project will deliver an advice rather then a product like a patch or add-on for GNU Mailman. This means that the report becomes an consultancy report instead of a project proposal. 1.0.0 30 June 2008 Final version 1 of the report. 1.0.1 1 July 2008 A spelling check of the report. 1.0.2 5 July 2008 Extending the conclusion en future work chapters. Participants Name Contact Information University of Amsterdam Rudy Borgstede (Student) [email protected] Cees de Laat (Supervisor) [email protected] NLnet Michiel Leenaars (Supervisor) [email protected] Abstract This report is the result of a research project of four weeks at the NLnet Foundation1 in Amster- dam. The NLnet Foundation is a foundation who financially supports the open-source community and their projects. The purpose of the project is to improve the usability and the administration of the mailing lists (of the foundation) and giving a more clear view on mailing list server software to anyone who is interested in using mailing list server software or developing new mail or mail- ing list server software. The report describes the research of the usability of several open-source mailing list server software for scalable environments with several well known mail servers.

The goal was to replace a previous mailing lists server "TULP", initiated in 1992 to organize the Bitnet services migration and was used essentially by French universities. Since April 97, Sympa development provided by the French academic network team (CRU) and distributed under Gnu Public Licence. Now Sympa includes a lot of sophisticated features and is widely used around the world. On Febrary 2001, we known about 1.500 domains using Sympa : Universities, ISP, admin- istrations, government departments, associations, private companies, ... 1 Sympa description 1.1 Yet another mailing lists server. The Open source community provide many mailing lists servers (http://listes.cru.fr/sympa/ robots.php3). Why developing one more mailing lists server ? We believe that mailing lists are a major service that needs a perfect adaptation to each application domain. Sympa is the only software that provides the following characteristics: 1. Full compliance to RFCs including MIME in any aspect of the service 2. Internationalization: Sympa is available with the it, de, fr, us, fi, es, cn langages ( pl and se are under waiting ). 3. Enhanced customisation possibilities 4. Good performances 5. Easy to manage for list master. Example: dynamic lists directory. 6. Integrated user and admin web interface Easy extensions of features (object oriented code). 1.2 A few original features Using internal RDBMS Firt goal is to support large services with high performances and scalability relying on RDBMS (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Oracle, Sybase supported ).
