G’day all
In another world I heard there’s a major new release of mailman
Hi, Don. The current version is 3.3.11. From version 2 to 3 was a compete rewrite, since then small incremental changes.
Does this support EAI?
Mailman has done a good job of internationalizing the messages and web pages, but I have no seen any work on allowing EAI subscribers. And honestly, I have no idea what it would mean for a list manager to support EAI in a meaningful way. It wouldn't be hard to allow UTF-8 addresses in subscriptions, but then there's the other 95% of the work. I suppose you could have EAI lists where all of the subscribers have to be on systems with EAI support, and non EAI lists that don't allow any non-ASCII addresses but that doesn't seem very useful. In the forseeable future we are going to have a mix of people on EAI and non-EAI mail systems, and on EAI mail systems some have ASCII addresses and some UTF-8 addresses. I have no idea how you would run a mailing list with a mix of EAI and non-EAI subscribers to exchange mail in a reasonable way and I would be surprised if anyone else did either. EAI is still very much a work in progress. R's, John
