The whole point of suggesting majordomo is that (IIRC) it keeps the
recipients in a plain-text file, one address per line, making it
trivial to replace them by dropping in a file that had them in that
format in place of the existing file.  You can't do that with mailman
because it stores them in a db file.  So in that case you'd be better
off using a script to generate a mutt aliases file, or some other
thing.
