I can't speak to Mailman but I'll speak up for ezmlm.
It hasn't been updated for years because it was well written and it
just works. No bugs have been found that would require changes to
the code.
The confirmed opt-in subscription functionality is broken. It tends
to subscribe auto-responders if someone or something sends malware.
That happens less with the approach used by Mailman (even though it is
still convenient) or classic Majordomo.
