I think it's time for Blue Onyx to step into the 21st century and dump
Majordomo.  That said, I would easily pay $50 or $100 for a Mailman package
that could live alongside Majordomo.  Most people are using Mailman in
webhosting environments today and it only seems like EDU's are hanging on to
Majordomo.  Maybe some others would answer if they would like a BX addon to
Mailman, but you have one thumbs up here.

Do I have to create new mailboxes on the server that are IMAP or just change
the existing ones to be IMAP (can I even do that?).
