I would install LISTSERV on my VPS, but am deterred by <br /> <br />1. the system footprint of LISTSERV <br /> <br />2. the price -- it's expensive. LISTSERV classic, and the license for support and upgrades, will set me back $3000 give or take. That's a tax writeoff at the end of the year, but, still, it's a big out of pocket expense <br /> <br />On the other hand I was a LISTSERV administrator for a number of years and I know it is a very good program. You can adjust almost every imaginable aspect of mailing list message delivery. <br /> <br />I'm still considering this. If I can round up enough clients who need mailing lists then I might take the plunge. <br /> <br />I will keep you posted. Thanks for your interest. Hope you're great. <br /> <br />Eric</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" class="spacerow"><img src="./templates/Morpheus/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="center" valign="top" class="row"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>jamie</b></span></td> <td class="row" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/Morpheus/images/gray/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="genmed">Posted: Sun Feb 22, 2009 9:21 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Eric, <br /> <br /> I'd be interested to know what you end up using and how well it suits your needs.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" class="spacerow"><img src="./templates/Morpheus/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="center" valign="top" class="row"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>EricBourland</b></span></td> <td class="row" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/Morpheus/images/gray/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="genmed">Posted: Wed Feb 18, 2009 3:48 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Mailing list software on WIndows VPS -- LISTSERV or Lyris? S</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Hi. <br /> <br />I have a Windows 2003 "Pro" VPS at HMS. 2GB RAM, 100GB storage, and SmarterMail 5.5. This VPS does everything I need it to do, except for mailing lists. <br /> <br />Can I get your thoughts about mailing list solutions for a Windows VPS? <br /> <br />I have clients who need mailing list solutions. By mailing list, I mean, email discussion group. I use the mailing list application that is bundled with SmarterMail 5.5. That works, but the clients do not like it b/c, in DIGEST mode, the SmarterMail mailing list does not automatically edit replies to replies. <br /> <br />Meaning -- DIGEST subscribers receive, at the end of the day, a Digest that is packed with subscribers' replies to each other's replies. I don't see any way to edit this behavior -- in either the clients or the software. =) <br /> <br />So, I am thinking about installing Lyris or LISTSERV software. These are big installation packages and each has a large system footprint. <br /> <br />Has anybody else installed Lyris or LISTSERV on a windows VPS? Or any other mailing list that is more configurable than the barebone mailing list that is bundled with SmarterMail? <br /> <br />Thanks for any ideas. <br /> <br />This forum continues to be a great resource. I am grateful for it. <br /> <br />Eric</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" class="spacerow"><img src="./templates/Morpheus/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
