继续并行运行 Mailman 和 Discourse，使用相同的电子邮件地址（作为 Mailman）

@Duksh

during the mbox imports can I import a Mailman list into a specific Discourse category/sub-category or will the import replicate the exact Mailman structure on Discourse?

Yes, that’s possible – Migrate a mailing list to Discourse (mbox, Listserv, Google Groups, etc) has instructions for it. Also, if you choose our hosting, we can do it for you.

@Duksh

can I use a mailman address (eg de@bo.net ) configured on Discourse to receive replies and new topics from its original subscribers of de@bo.net to a new Discourse category/sub-category (eg De/Bonet)?

Yes, you can create a read-only mirror of the mailing list. All emails that get sent to the mailing list will appear inside a category in Discourse. Please note, we recommend that you disallow any replies in such a category to prevent any confusion, because Discourse will never send emails to the mailing list.
