I might instead suggest focusing your efforts on making a really nice PHP
front end for ezmlm. There are things it does that you'll never really be
able to pull off in PHP, yet it's extremely ugly to configure, and
therefore could use a hand. I've seen a few front ends for it but none of
them impressed me all that much.
Creating a robust mailing list manager from scratch is not a trivial
exercise. Doing it in PHP - with one process, hamstrung by
environment-imposed execution time limits, etc., sounds like madness
unless you're making something very lightweight.
