Re[2]: [cobalt-users] Majordomo Alternative - Mojo Mail

["Virgil H. Huston, Jr." <huston@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

MV> It is missing some things that majordomo provides. It does not allow one to store the firstname lastname in the list, it does not offer the ability to set up a digest version, it does not allow
MV> email subscriptions/unsubcriptions, and so on. What features does it provide that majordomo does not (other than viewing archives which require the install of another program)?

It is missing some things, however, it works where Majordomo on the
Raq does not (at least for me). I have seen a number of post here on
announce-only lists and Mojo is perfect for that (unless you want
personalization). It is easier to set up and run (web based interface)
than Majordomo. Depending on your audience, Majordomo can be a real
hassle. If you are dealing with a nontech type of audience, then I
think Majordome loses some of its appeal. No matter how many
instructions you provide, people can't/won't figure it out. Mojo has a
web subscribe/unsubscribe ready to go. I am not pushing this program
so much as I am letting the folks like me who can not get majordomo on
the Raq configured to do what I want know that there is this program,
which will take care of some of the problems.
