Recommended mailing list manager for use with Postfix

emailsoftware-rec

I have a small VPS (256MB RAM, 12% cap CPU) with Postfix installed that I use to host my mail domains. I want to run a mailing list manager, but would like to avoid Mailman because of its big fingerprint. Plus, I sysadmin a couple of them and would like to try new things 🙂

Any recommendation?

The Postfix web site lists several mailing list managers. Majordomo is listed there, and is pretty common, and I know it has run on systems with fewer resources than you've mentioned.

if (M.login('YOU@gmail.com','PASSWORD')[0] != 'OK'): exit("no conn")

How to hold mail for only certain users with postfix

You can use the action HOLD returned by access control.

For example:

/etc/postfix/main.cf:
smtpd_recipient_restrictions =
    check_sender_access hash:/etc/postfix/sender_access

/etc/postfix/sender_access:
sender1@mydomain.com     HOLD
sender2@mydomain.com     HOLD

Then you can manage the release of the hold using the postsuper command.

See the following for additional details:
