Lee Hirz asked me to post the following:
MailMan has a POP3 server already (Since 1997) and has been used with popular email programs like Pegasus, Outlook and Eudora. It is very simple to set up and run.

I was asked by Cameron Schlehuber for a version of GUI Mail, a popular Delphi-Based Vista Mail Client that is widely used in
VHA to be used on Open Forum. I don't know if this is the client Chris was referring to or whether he is working on something else.
I was asked by Cameron to compile the new non-callback broker into the application, which permits a connection through firewalls.
Once we've done that, and tested it, I would have no problem making it available to Open Forum.
I just received the non-callback patch a couple of days ago, so we should be able to move on this soon, and hopefully it will work.
I haven't been to Open Forum for quite awhile, so I'm not sure if this is what is being discussed, or whether something else is being discussed.
Obviously, multiple e-mail clients are possible.

User resistance to Mailman in a new implemntation of OpenVistA!
The problem is that people are accustomed to the easy to use GUI mail clients and will not be comfortable after having been spoilt with such systems.
Chris Richardson in an earlier mail stated that they will soon be having a GUI interface for the Open Forum. Is that going to be part of a FOIA release or an open source development by someone outside the VA for Mailman?
What is the approach planned for Mailman for the future in terms of user interface, POP access, etc.
