3 The Unix Listmanager Program - TULP
4
5 Version 4.2.1 - January 2000
6
7 TULP is a mailing-lists manager. It implements a subset of the commands of
8 the well known LISTSERV, used mainly in the Bitnet world. It can also be
9 used, in a very limited manner, as a mail-server for text archives.
10
11 TULP allows an easy management of mailing-lists. Once their are created by
12 the TULP-manager, users can subscribe, signoff, get the list of
13 subscribers, or retrieve past articles by sending mail to an automatic
14 sofware, typically listserv@node.dom.ain. The implemented commands are
15 really close to the syntax used on Bitnet-Listserv running on IBM
16 mainframes. Note that there is *no* connection between the original
17 listserv running on IBM mainframes and TULP.
18
19 Each list can have several attributes:
20
21 + Multiple list status: public, private, moderated.
22
23 + List of owners an an editor.
24
25 + Multiple "review" status: public, private, owners.
26
27 + Multiple subscription schemes: public, owners, closed.
28
29 + Messages numbering (optional).
30
31 + Messages archival (on a monthly basis, optional).
32
33 + Filtering of (some) administrative requests sent to the lists instead of the
34 administrative address [if you have Perl on your system].
35
36 TULP is interfaced with the Sendmail MTA in the released version but it
37 should also be easily adaptable to other mail transport agents.
38
39 TULP has been known to run under the following systems:
40
41 AIX 3.1, 3.2
42 A/UX 3
43 HP-UX 8.x, 9.x, 10.x
44 NetBSD 1.x
45 Redhat Linux 4.x, 5.x, 6.x
46 Solaris 2.x, 7
47 SunOS 4.1
48 SVR4 3.0
