I'd like to "link" GNU Mailman email lists with vBulletin forums (on a one-to-one basis). Does vBulletin provide a means to do this?
I've admin-ed systems that have provided a Mailman-to-phpBB gateway using http://www.mail2forum.com (aka "M2F").
Note that I do not want a simple email notifier of thread updates, nor do I want thread updates to simply update an email list/address. I want the updates to go "both way," and I want new subscribers to an email list to be able to post to the web forum transparently (said email list subscribers don't even have to know they are web-forum posting) and vice versa. I also want to be able to "gateway-link" an existing email list with a new forum, an existing forum to a new list, or an existing list with an existing forum. (ie, I want to link said discussion areas "after the fact.")
Thoughts?
