   Thanks!

   From what I understand, there may be a number of products under
discussion for managing mailing lists on CalMail: among these, the
list management features of the core mail server software used for
the CalMail cluster, CommuniGate Pro
<http://www.stalker.com/CommuniGatePro/LIST.html>; Mailman
<http://www.list.org> (also open source, written in Python); and
Majordomo. It's also possible that different products may be used
for offering simple, reflector-type lists and more full-featured,
list server-type lists.
