I will leave this up for a little while but will be deleting it once Isaac
makes his decision. You have to register with a real Email address or the
mail list function won’t work :-P</span></font></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Arial><span style='font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:Arial'>With the combination of PHPBB and M2F you have the ability
to post via the Forum or sending by an Email to the Forum Address. There is
also integration of using Mailman as the mail manager in this solution. I
haven’t really put a lot of time in to it as if Isaac says it isn’t
worth the bandwidth I didn’t want to waste a bunch of time. Current
users who enjoy the mail list shouldn’t notice any difference. New
users will have the option of activating the mail list feature or using the
forum. Since all you need is name, email address, and password, I should
be able to write a script to import the current Mailman accounts in to PHPBB.
I haven’t tried yet since I didn’t know if anyone would be interested
in this. </span></font></p>
