I am seeing your new mailing list manager and I am all excited
because I like ezmlm, want something not as bloated as mailman, and
given that mlmmj is still young, I hope I can contribute to get
important features in.

One such feature is the ability to add and remove mailing lists
without the need to edit /etc/aliases. The best way to do this would
be to provide transport/directors that take messages at stdin and
handle them accordingly. Then I could set, e.g. postfix to have
lists.my.domain use the mlmmj transport, which would be this script.

The next feature that I think is paramount is the ability to add
aliases to an account, like majordomo2. With subscriber-only lists,
it is a pain to be restricted to a single address for posting.
mailman "solves" this by allowing subscriptions to be NOMAIL. this
is also painful. majordomo2 is nice. you subscribe, then register
a bunch of aliases with your address, which can also post.

The last feature was sent to Mads privately. Here is is for
completeness. Not sure whether this can be done, or should rather be
done in a separate programme. But I think it's a cool idea (it's
mine...) ;^>

Here it is:

For your information, I am a mailing list administrator with quite
some experience in majordomo, ezmlm, and mailman, even with sympa...
I use mailman and I hate it. All the others are worse though. ezmlm
mainly because of its licence.

I am particularly looking for a special mailing list manager to
handle:

Maybe mlmmj can be made flexible enough from the start to be able to
support this.

Cheers,

Using Debian bullseye with backports of git installed to get
filter-branch if I attempt to run b4 prep it refuses to create a
new branch saying:

| $  b4 -d prep -n b4-test -f v6.0-rc3
| Running git --no-pager status --porcelain=v1 --untracked-files=no
| Running git --no-pager symbolic-ref -q HEAD
| Running git --no-pager config -z --get-regexp branch\.master\..*
| Running git --no-pager rev-parse --show-toplevel
| Running git --no-pager config -z --get-regexp b4\..*
| Running git --no-pager config -z --get-regexp gpg\..*
| Looking for the cover letter commit with magic marker "--- b4-submit-tracking ---"
| Running git --no-pager log --grep --- b4-submit-tracking --- -F --pretty=oneline --max-count=1 --since=1.year
| Running git --no-pager config -z --get-regexp user\..*
| Running git --no-pager symbolic-ref -q HEAD
| Running git --no-pager symbolic-ref -q HEAD
| Running git --no-pager config -z --get-regexp branch\.master\..*
| CRITICAL: fork-point %s is not on the current branch.
|           Switch to the branch you want to use as base and try again.

AFAICT this happens no matter what fork point is specified.
