== History == A very early version of Mailman was written by [[John Viega]] while a graduate student, who then lost his copy of the source in a hard drive crash sometime around 1998.<ref name="http://myriadicity.net">{{cite web| url = http://myriadicity.net/Sundry/MyMailmanRole | title =MyMailmanRole β Myriadicity Dot| access-date = 2009-02-11 }}</ref> Ken Manheimer at [[Corporation for National Research Initiatives]] (CNRI), who was looking for a replacement for [[Majordomo (software)|Majordomo]], then took over development. When Manheimer left CNRI, Barry Warsaw took over.
