I've hesitated to answer as I don't have experience from an administrator of Sympa, but as an "uber" admin (I don't remember the Sympa term. We're talking circa 2002 2003) of mailing lists. Maybe it was Master Administrator. I was hoping you would hear from more experienced voices. Anyway, I could do anything to any mailing list on the server that a list owner or admin could do to their own lists. My impressions were that it was HIGHLY configurable. IIRC, there are 4 types of lists depending on who can post and subscribe. You can get notifications for a gazillion things, again, iirc. Multilingual, though that may not be a concern for you. It was for the org I volunteered for. >From where I was standing it seemed like a nice package. I enjoyed the experience of using it. If you do go the Sympa route, I'd be interested in hearing your impressions, both as list admin and as sysadmin.
