No, though it does have web based list management. MailMan is much closer. Key differences are SAAS (no self hosting), privacy (anonymizing), built in safety (anti-virus, tracker & dangerous attachment removal), and no tech know-how needed.

"Ignorance of a bar-stool drunk" does describe his supporters

Can't it be both?

Had similar issues with my Dad. So many family members got forwarded email attacks we had to use some safety measures. We made EMail Parrot based on this experience - emparrot.com

Would an approach like emparrot.com/blog/2024/02... help you?

Ever thought of making your newsletter interactive? Engagement comes from being heard and a blast-o-gram doesn't do that. EMail Parrot provides safe, moderated, and private group email conversations. emparrot.com/blog/2024/02...

Anonymized, closed groups can give you what your member's need.

For organizers out there - EMail Parrot enables anonymized email group discussions. Keep your crew active and safe. Don't let the energy fade after Saturday due to privacy concerns. emparrot.com

EMail Parrot is also not an MTA though it uses one for receiving and sending - AWS SES. You original point is a good one - our documentation needs to clarify the log retention policy as well as the email retention policy. I'll reach out to the team on that, thanks.

As a relay (anonymizing email reflector) encrypted MIME emails can pass straight through and no virus (content) scanning can occur. Encrypted email content is not readable by our systems. It is your encryption

We use stripe.com as payment processor so accept what they do - no anonymous payments.

The system has an immediate delete option for all processed emails. We cannot provide what we don't have.

On the E2EE front there may be confusion of where this service lives in the email delivery chain. It is a relay and neither encrypts nor decrypts. OpenPGP encrypted emails can pass through.

Thanks for the feedback - I did ask and value it. We will review these in detail. It does seem like you didn't review the T&Cs - "We will not sell or transmit your information to any third parties unless obligated to by law."

Wasn't thinking you were endorsing. I'm glad I'm talking to someone with your knowledge. Spoofing (impersonation) is an area we strive to address so I'd love to hear more of your concerns.
