Well, you've already got a domain name. If anybody with our club has the inclination and knowledge to set up/install a Linux or BSD server on surplus PC hardware (I'm talking the sort that should be available for a couple hundred US dollars or less), that's sufficient to install Mailman. All you need from your web hosting provider is an email forward to the list's posting address. You should be able to stick the server in a broom closet and forget about it. So long as it's a broom closet with a DSL, cable modem, or for the volume you're talking, even a 56K ppp connection. -- ----------------------------------------------------------------- Dan Wilder <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Technical Manager & Editor SSC, Inc.
