Last commit was 19 months ago, you name it. :(
I’d like to pay developers for some new feature.

[mlmmj] Is this list active?

[Mayuresh]

I am about to give mlmmj a try to set up a mailing list.

At the onset a bit intrigued and why year 2018 is conspicuously absent in
your mailing list archives[1]. Is everything alright out there? Hope this
mail reaches the list.

Just a few observations to begin with:

- I notice "(No search yet, sorry!)" remark here[2]. I doubt whether that
  is so important feature as anyone can search using Google for a given
  domain anyway. [At least you don't have to be sorry!]

- Wonder why your archives page[3] doesn't give your own archives[1] as an
  example instead of libssh!

- BTW, the link[4] cited at the bottom of [3] is not opening.

Will soon post if I have queries when trying to set up mlmmj.

it's a shame. i see the utility of it but it felt lacking in some 
features so i switched it out for mailman 2.x in my mail server 
implementation.

Zhang, in iredmail, why not use MM instead? or rather, how/why did you 
choose mlmmj?

Being open source, you can easily hire a developer for a feature, and then submit it for upstream if you feel like it. It’s even MIT license, so you don’t have to.

iRedMail supports storing mail accounts in OpenLDAP, MySQL/MariaDB or PostgreSQL, so we need the mailing list manager to be able to work with them all.
We wrote mlmmjadmin[1] (a simple RESTful API server) to update SQL/LDAP server while creating/updating/deleting mlmmj mailing lists, so it’s seamlessly integrated. I don’t think we can easily achieve this with Mailman.

It’s easy to write your own plugin for mlmmjadmin to integrate mlmmj with your mail server and update the SQL/LDAP db which stores mail accounts.
