SmartList v. Majordomo

1996-01-27 05:52:07
I just tried switching a list from SmartList to Majordomo, and came running 
right back to SmartList.  While SmartList seems to let you queue up more 
than one message at a time, majordomo creates one message with a mondo 
header, and the system waits on each address.  Since I'm only operating 
with a 28.8 dedicated link, waiting for messages to go out like this is 
painful and takes forever.

So I'm back to SmartList, but there is one thing that SmartList is missing 
which causes problems for many less-sophisticated users:  a centralized 
list manager (ie., majordomo(_at_)foo(_dot_)com) which takes subscribe and 
unsubscribe 
requests and passes them on the particular list named (ie., subscribe 
mylist).  It seems to me the actual function would be fairly simple.

Has anyone written any add-ons or modifications of SmartList or Procmail to 
accomplish something like this?  I'm using procmail-3.11pre3 and 
SmartList-3.11pre3.
