I've forwarded the std. Usenet FAQ (abstracted here): From: [log in to unmask] (Jonathan I. Kamens) Newsgroups: comp.mail.misc,comp.sources.wanted,comp.answers,news.answers Subject: Mail Archive Server software list Archive-name: mail/archive-servers Version: $Id: archive_servers,v 1.62 1993/11/22 19:37:11 jik Exp $ A Summary of Available Mail Archive Server Software --------------------------------------------------- Mail archive servers are programs which receive incoming mail messages, interpret them, and take action based on them. For example, two tasks which might be performed by mail servers are handling subscriptions to mailing lists and redistributing messages sent to the lists; and delivering files to users based on incoming requests This posting focuses, primarily, on mail servers which run under UNIX. For each server listed below, I provide the following information, if known: Name Author Maintainer Latest known version How to get it Implementation language Supported platforms Comments If you can fill any of the blanks or have comments about anything written below, or if you have new servers to add to the list, please let me know. If you would like to ask me to change this posting in some way, the method I appreciate most is for you to actually make the desired modifications to a copy of the posting, and then to send me the modified posting, or a context diff between my posted version and your modified version (if you do the latter, make sure to include in your mail the "Version:" line from my posted version). Submitting changes in this way makes dealing with them easier for me and helps to avoid misunderstandings about what you are suggesting. There are two sections below. The first describes the various archive servers, and the second lists known sites from which the archive servers can be obtained, and how to access them. The "How to get it" fields of the archive server descriptions refer to the site listings.
