Thread: Postgres Mailing List management solution

I am looking for a email list management solution (can be a script, an
open source application etc), which uses Postgre SQL (AKA Postgres) as
database.

Can you let me know whether this rare bird exist?

I don't know of anything myself - actually, I'm not sure if any of the
main systems use any sort of RDBMS.

You might be able to hook up a feed from one to "Archiveopteryx" which
provides a mail archive & imap server. I've just started looking at it,
and it seems to have a pretty good design. Note - I've only looked at
the database side of it rather than IMAP compliance etc.

IIRC, Sympa (www.sympa.org) supports it. Haven't used it myself though.

I use ezmlm for quite a few mailing lists, but I've never used the
postgresql backend.

I have done an Mailman installation some years ago that was storing all
user info in PostgreSQL. We were dumping user data in mailman's format
regulary (silent unsub/silent resub).

I know it is a pain, but it was working (BTW, we were using our own
subcription page).
