Mailman is at its essence a library.  One way to think of the code is as
a Python package called 'Mailman' with various command line script
wrappers providing interfaces for cgi, mail programs, cron, and shell
access.

I don't know if that answers your question, but it might help when
thinking about whether Mailman can solve your problem.
