It's of course up to you, but I recommend Mailman 3. There are still some rough edges, and there are a number of settings not yet exposed in Postorius, but we are working on it and it is quite usable today.
Thank you, Mark. My thoughts now. I have used nothing but MM for ages so will wait…. And it would require less convincing for the two groups I host
Which is why upgrading from Mailman 2 to 2 still seems like the best idea.
Do you mean Mailman 3?
OOPS!! yes.
I suspect it will be some time before Cpanel offers Mailman 3. It is fairly straightforward to migrate an existing Mailman 2.1 list and it's archives to Mailman 3, but it requires access to the underlying Mailman 2 file system which you may not have in a hosted cPanel environment.
See <http://docs.list.org/en/latest/migration.html> for more on migration.
Thanks. I had a look just now.
I suspect we won’t worry about broken URL links. Most people check archives to try to keep track of a conversation. With difficultly now, but much easier in MAILMAN 3. And going forward, they might just be motivated to post from the archives!!!! (As I am now doing!!!)
The rest of the upgrade procedures are pretty much lost on me (not having done this kind of thing before), so either I wait or pay someone who might be willing to do it. (Assuming there is a someone and assuming it can be done in my CPanel environment)
Also, this particular account is hosted by an educational NPO, so they may have restrictions. I will ask them if it is possible. Thanks!
