I’ve installed mailman 3 a few months ago because I am hosting some mailinglist 
servers for a German community for blind people and we have to migrate from 
mailman 2 to mailman 3 somewhen in the near future.

In general mailman 3 is very accessible with modern browsers and also with 
textbased browsers most administrative tasks can be done very well. We would 
have much less problems if other software is that good regarding accessibility.

I can only remember some small accessibility issues when the webinterface is 
used to brows and create or reply to posts, but I have to take a closer look 
and if there is something I can open an issue on github where the mailman 3 
sources are hosted.

Regarding thee problem with the anonymous postings on this lists I think there 
are possibilities to reconfigure the list which is running on mailman 2. We 
have hundrets of lists running owith mailman 2.1.29 and we do not have any spam 
problem and we do not need to configure the lists to be anonymous. I am not 
sure if mailman version for this list is to old to reconfigure the lists 
properly and I do also not know if the mailman version can be updated e.g. to 
2.1.29, but I can say for sure that no update to mailman 3 is needed because of 
spam problems. Those kind of problems can be resolved with mailman 2 too and 
updating from 2.1.x to e.g. 2.1.29 or 2.1.36 should be no big thing.

Cheers,

  Schoepp
