DadaMail (n´ MojoMail) has been a great piece of software for handling multiple company mailing lists. I used it to manage our 5,000 subscribers while at Virtual Access Networks, but I haven't been using perl recently so I've started to look into list software written in PHP. I just installed phplist, and that was a relatively good experience. I haven't had a chance to really write it up yet, so I'm curious if anyone else has stories to share about mailing list managers.

Actually, I'm not convinced that websites need mailing lists anymore. The only website newsletter that I subscribe to is the SitePoint Tribune, and that is because they obviously put a lot of effort into it, and it's done well. Every other list that I'm a member of are true list-servs for groups or opens source projects. Otherwise, I can get updates via blogs and RSS on a daily basis.
