For the love of God, please either decide to keep this in private email or
in the public eye. Flip-flopping and then posting follow-ups to private
messages to the list is terribly poor netiquette.

I choose not to argue with any of your arguments since I disagree with the
basis of them. The original poster, if you'll recall, wanted a free or
extremely cheap Windows NT list manager that provided good features.
You listed Lyris.
I rebutted that Lyris didn't meet his requirements because it cost too much.
You rebutted that even still, it's a "you get what you pay for" thing and
hence Lyris is still an option (this happened in private email).
I then rebutted by listing ezmlm/qmail (in direct response to your
comparison between Majordomo/sendmail and Lyris), and at the end, for
dramatic effect, had:
( It's also free.
(
( It also doesn't run on Windows NT.
"It's also free" is what qualified it (in your eyes, apparently) for
consideration for that original poster, as it met one of his original
requirements. "It also doesn't run on Windows NT" was my equivalent of your
$5000 suggestion--in my eyes, that disqualified it, since it didn't meet one
of his original requirements.
In any event, I shall not reply to any more messages in this thread,
whether you choose to keep this public or move it back to private email.
