Is Topicbox a listserve / mailing list?

Topicbox can absolutely function as a replacement for your listserve or mailing list, whether it's hosted on a Mailman or majordomo install, or you use a listserve service like Google Groups or Yahoo Groups.

We think Topicbox is better than a listserve for organizations with more than one listserve (what we call a group.) Most listserves are centered around the idea of the group, and Topicbox is centered around the idea of the organization.

Topicbox makes it easier for administrators to:

• get an overview of all the groups they manage
• see all a member's groups and settings in one place
• treat members as "trusted"

Trusted members can:

• create new groups
• see a list of available groups to join
• see who is a member of a group
  

All members should find it easier to:

• skim messages across all their groups (in the News Center)
  
• search groups
• manage high-volume groups (with a single Daily Summary instead of a digest for every group)
