David,
I run a pretty large list on Groups.io, the blind-hams list.
It has been good until mid-July, when it started bouncing some members. Of
some 240 members, nine were bouncing.
I sent "bounce reactivations" to them, and a majority I think are back on
with no problem. But, there were four people who I had to unsubscribe and
send them invitations to re-join.
I know that is still a better track record than the mailman lists, but just
want to let you know it isn't completely without some faults.

I am considering moving the list over to groups IO as I understand they
seem to have less problems of being bounced by various internet providers.
Over the years and especially lately we have lost a number of good members
since their providers will not allow messages from this domain to get to
subscribers, and as such they bounce and get removed by the server. I can’t
even contact these people privately since my email address is tied to this
domain.
I have to bring my people up to date on groups IO next, the good thing it
is a lot easier to figure out than Mailman. It is almost 10 years since
the last move and with luck this will be the last. I do not know how much
longer I will keep running this beast, but believe it or not in October it
will be 13 years. Bob and I never figured on it lasting this long, There
is obviously a need which is the reason for keeping it.
