How To Install mlmmj on CentOS 8
mlmmj is A simple and slim mailing list manager inspired by ezmlm
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install mlmmj on CentOS 8.
What is mlmmj
Mlmmj(Mailing List Management Made Joyful) is a simple and slim mailing list manager (MLM) inspired by ezmlm. It works with many different Mail Transport Agents (MTAs) and is simple for a system adminstrator to install, configure and integrate with other software. As it uses very few resources, and requires no daemons, it is ideal for installation on systems where resources are limited, such as Virtual Private Servers (VPSes). Although it doesn’t aim to include every feature possible, but focuses on staying mean and lean, and doing what it does do well, it does have a great set of features, including - Archive - Custom headers / footer - Fully automated bounce handling (similar to ezmlm) - Complete requeueing functionality - Moderation functionality - Subject prefix - Subscribers only posting - Regular expression access control - Functionality to retrieve old posts - Web interface - Digests - No-mail subscription - VERP support - Delivery Status Notification (RFC1891) support - Rich, customisable texts for automated operations
