Mailman Mailing List Service

Mailman Tool Gets a Software and Security Upgrade

April 27, 2023

Do you frequently send emails to the same group of people within the campus community? If so, a mailing list management service can simplify the process. Academic and administrative workgroups, student clubs and organizations, project groups, and committees can all use a mailing list service to create and manage lists and to send email to list members.

The Mailman mailing list service is based on a local installation of Mailman, the GNU Mailing List Manager. The service runs on the mailman.stanford.edu server and provides built-in archiving, automatic bounce processing, spam and content filtering, and digest delivery. In addition to Mailman, you can also use the Google Groups mailing list service. Google Groups is the preferred mailing list service, however certain functionalities are currently only available in Mailman. Compare Stanford's mailing list management services to determine which one best meets your needs.
