DeadmanDAO Mail Server

No, it doesn't have nearly the capabilities of a real mailing list system.

Mailchimp is out because it was bought for so much money that the money squeeze is going to be intense.

Other commercial providers are not significantly less risky than Mailchimp.

Mailman is robust once deployed and the initial build-out is not too painful.

DeadmanDAO Mailman Build-out

• MailingListDeadmanFirstPass (Deb 10, Mailman 3: installed Apache and Certbot before Mailman, which made it hard to deploy the Mailman web console)
• MailingListDeadmanSecondPass (Deb 10, Mailman 3: had trouble getting the Snap/PIP/VirtualEnv version of Mailman to let me in as an administrator)
• MailingListDeadmanThirdPass Deb 9, Mailman 2, had trouble getting the Mailman executables to execute as cgi's.
• Fourth Pass: Deb 10, Mailman 2. Repeatedly failed sendmail test (as have/would the others, though I was inconsistently testing)
• Fifth Pass: Frustrated. Using traxel.com's install of Mailman.

crypto-admin:        "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman admin crypto"
crypto-bounces:      "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman bounces crypto"
crypto-confirm:      "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman confirm crypto"
crypto-join:         "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman join crypto"
crypto-leave:        "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman leave crypto"
crypto-owner:        "|/var/lib/mailman/mail/mailman owner crypto"
