Managing a mailing list can be a lot of work - for example, keeping track of all the messages that are
received and sent, and keeping track of who subscribes to the list and who quits.
Frequently, software is used that automates the management of these
mailing list functions.
Some of the more common mailing list management programs are:
- Lsoft's LISTSERVTM
- majordomo
- ListProc by CREN (Corporation for Research and Educational Networking)
