Best online mailing list management software
Monday, March 10th, 2008
This page is a repost of one made when searching for mailing list management software for the CrowPoint festival website as part of my work with Communimedia (I’m now at BridgeHosting for web design work, etc.). I’ve used PHPlist on several sites now (including Diverse Manners) and so you could well consider it the winner, but do install at least a couple of apps (or try demos if available, eg PHPlist demo) to ensure you get the app that works best for your situation.
There are several options for open source PHP based mailing lists (and other types). I’m just going to summarise the project names first. I might do some reviews and add details later though.
Note that well known applications used for mailing list management include LISTSERV(TM) by L-Soft (now at version 14.5) and Major Domo by Great Circle Associates (now at version 1.94.5) - these so far as I can tell are console / command line based applications. Major Domo at least has some web-based front-ends made for it though. They might be useful to you, but not to me!
