Cool, I am glad you can use the product right away for a project.

Yes, there is a proof-of-concept (not working) ZMMUserFolder as part of the 
product. But simply by providing the Mailman API in Zope will help you with 
this task. But let's take that discussion to the ZMailman list, since it is 
inappropriate for this one...

Well, Zope 3.0 is in the early stages of development right now. So, it is 
not really ready for use yet. ZMailman still uses 2.5.
What do you mean with non-zoo tutorials?
