Mailman is integrated with the web, making it +easy for users to manage their accounts and for list owners to +administer their lists. Mailman supports built-in archiving, +automatic bounce processing, content filtering, digest delivery, spam +filters, and more. See the <a href="features.html">features page</a> +for details. + +<p>Mailman is free software, distributed under the +<a href="http://www.gnu.org/copyleft/gpl.html">GNU General Public +License</a>. Mailman is written in the +<a href="http://www.python.org/">Python</a> +programming language, with a little bit of C code for security. + +<p>The name of this software is spelled <em>Mailman</em> +with a capital leading <em>M</em> and a lowercase second <em>m</em>. +It is incorrect to spell it "MailMan" (i.e. you should not use +StudlyCaps). +<!-- Mailman is gender neutral, low carb, kid safe, drug +free, high octane, slightly lemony flavored... and easier to remember +than <a href="http://www.eve-golden.com/images/FloobsOPT--OK.jpg">Floob +Boober Bab Boober Bubs</a>. --> + +<h3>Current Version</h3> + +<p>Version +<!-VERSION--->2.1<!-VERSION--->, +(released on +<!-DATE--->30-Dec-2002<!-DATE--->) +is the current released version of Mailman, in production at many +sites. + +<h3>Acknowledgements</h3> + +<p>Mailman's lead developer is +<a href="http://barry.warsaw.us">Barry Warsaw</a> who can be contacted +at <a href="mailto:barry@python.org">barry@python.org</a>. + +<p>Thanks go to +<a href="http://www.control.com/">Control.com</a> for their +sponsorship of new Mailman 2.1 features such as the topic filters, +external membership sources, and "virtual" mailing lists.
