14 Hi, I have just started converting the lists I host from SmartList
15 to Minimalist. I'm running it all under Linux and have been very pleased
16 with the ease, speed and flexibility of Minimalist as compared to
17 SmartList and Majordomo.<br><br><i>Joe Klemmer</i>
18 <p><p>Incredible. Simple, powerful and reliable, this Minimalist keeps
19 up de *NIX style. I used to hold several mail list with Mailman (5MB
20 source) but this 30Kb source Minimalist gives me the same service.<br><br>
21 Great!<br><br><i>muhandix</i>

31 <p><font size=3><b><u>What is this?</u></b></font>
32 <p><font size=2>Minimalist stands for <i>Minimalistic Mailing Lists Manager</i>. Although
33 it is declared as minimalistic, it has many features as his eldest brosers,
34 such as Majordomo and so on, but in contrast to them it is very small, fast,
35 simple for setup and maintenance. Also it has very clean internal structure and
36 if you are familiar with Perl, you can add as many additional features, as you
37 need.
39 <p>Supported features are:<ul>
40 <li>subscribe/unsubscribe users by request<ul>
41 <li> including write-only option of subscription</ul>
42 <li>several levels of security
43 <li>read-only/closed/mandatory lists
44 <li>information about list; users, subscribed to list; lists, to which user subscribed
45 <li>per-user options:<ul>
46 <li>read-only (for open lists)
47 <li>write allow (for read-only lists)
48 <li>maximum message size</ul>
49 <li>susped/resume subscription
50 <li>archiving lists (internal and external), with configurable maximum size of archived message
51 <li>multilanguage support
52 <li>process MIME-encoded messages<ul>
53 <li>including support for local charset (for reports and footer)</ul>
54 <li>external delivery of processed message
55 <li>blacklist
56 <li>logging activity
57 </ul>
59 <p>Minimalist doesn't support digests and author isn't even going to make this
60 support available.
