[comp.sources.wanted] PD Mailing List Software Wanted

keenan@inmet (10/24/88)

I'm looking for a simple public domain Mailing List Database for UNIX.

It seems that something using Curses and ndbm would be perfect, and
easy to write. I'm hoping someone has one they are willing to share
with me; it will be used for a non-commercial non-political list.

I'd appreciate hearing about available mailing list programs. Thanks,

Several recent postings here (and in comp.databases) have asked for this
sort of thing.  Over the last 4-5 months, Ray Shwartz's "Doing Business
with UNIX" column in UNIX WORLD (tm) has developed a fairly complete
mailing address system.  All is public domain, and most of the source
code has been published in the column (although some stuff must be
downloaded from a BBS in California--see column for info.)

I've been playing with this--and have some of the stuff keyed in--
and will make it available on request.  (I also have the stuff from
the BBS.)

I can't vouch for the completeness of Shwartz's stuff, but he has
(according to the column and the copyright notices attached to the
stuff) placed it in the public domain.

(Please correct me if I'm wrong, Ray.)
