Majordomo 2 is an upwardly-compatible rewrite of the popular majordomo mailing list manager software by Jason Tibbitts and Michael Yount.
In this case, "upwardly-compatible" means that there is a fairly easy way to upgrade from majordomo 1. Once you upgrade, the email interface is largely the same, but almost everything else is different. It's better though.
In theory, just Perl 5 and various modules, all available from CPAN. In practice, you really want a recent version of Perl 5, preferably 5.005_03 or 5.6.1, a Unix-like system of some sort (Linux works nicely), and Berkeley DB.
Snapshots are available via http, anonymous ftp, and anonymous rsync from ftp.mj2.org.
