Actually I would say it's better featured than mailman.  It's not
web-based, which I count as a bonus.  You can have multiple moderators
who can't step on each others' toes (one-time cookies in the approval
messages).  Approving is a matter of bouncing the message to an
approval address.

The best features are its HTML stripping and its enforcement of
quoting limits.  This has effectively trained a lot of Outlook lusers
on some of my lists how to be good citizens...
