Contributors are welcome and encouraged! Discussions will happen on the mailman-developers mailing list. Anyone can check out and use the current development source branches.

Development and status

Mailman 3 is essentially four main projects:

• Mailman Core
• Postorius - The Web UI for Mailman (code)
• Mailman Client - The REST API Client
• HyperKitty - The Archiver for Mailman (code)

Mailman 3.0 is most suitable to new installations of Mailman. We do not guarantee that it will work well for migrations and upgrades of Mailman 2.x; we believe that will work, but encourage you to make backups and test your migrations first. It is not yet at full feature parity with Mailman 2.x, but we're working on that for 3.1.
