Hi,
I've recently become aware of an alternative to Mailman (the software
used for this mailing list). It's name is
[GroupServer](http://groupserver.org) and it can be seen in action on
[this site](https://onlinegroups.net).
I've taken a quick look at the
[details](http://groupserver.org/groupserver/features/details) and I
don't really see any downsides, but I stopped reading when I saw these
golden nuggets about formatting messages for the web-interface:
While the messages are formatted and presented as part of a HTML
Web-page, HTML email messages are not used, instead the plain-text
form of the message is used. This is to ensure the security of the
system.
[...]
The final formatting change is to convert the message so it uses the
UTF-8 (Unicode) character encoding. This enables a wide range of
character sets to be used within the same topic.
[...]
Files can be shared as attachments to posts made by email, or by the
web. In both cases, a link to the files is distributed in the email
version of the post, rather than sending out the files as attachments.
So, I'm considering installing GroupServer on my server and migrate the
Mailman mailing list, but first I would like to know if anyone on this
list has any experience with it (as user or administrator).
Thanks in advance.
