- Just another checkpoint commit in the cleanup of the Mailman port.
- Add a (non-standard) $PKGOPTS file (currently $FILESDIR/pkg-opts) to document the user configurable build time variables supported by the port. Add a target "options" to Makefile to display build time options in a human readable format. Remove reams of comments from Makefile - superseded by $PKGOPTS. - Clean up the killing of running qrunner processes in $PKGDEINSTALL. - Bump the $PORTREVISION. (Yes, again.)

-Mailman is software to help manage email discussion lists, much like Majordomo

-support for virtual domains, and more.
+Paraphrasing the website:

+ Mailman is a mailing list manager (MLM); that is, software to help manage
+ email discussion lists, much like Majordomo, LISTSERV, and the like.
+ Unlike most similar products, Mailman gives each mailing list a web page
+ and allows users to subscribe, unsubscribe, and change their preferences
+ via the web. Even a list manager can administer his or her list(s)

-The manual is still only a set of READMEs provided in the Mailman distribution.
+Mailman is written mostly in Python (with a smattering of C where necessary
+for security purposes), and includes hooks to make it easily scriptable and
+extensible. It is compatible with most web servers and browsers, and most
+mail transfer agents (mail servers). Mailman's documentation may be found on
