Hello, Thanks again for the answers. I do not have an own server and do not want to have my computer running all the time so I guess the best would be to create a list on some existing Mailman installation of some service provider. Is there any information available how to find one? And in case I find a provider where lists can be run, HOW do I start one? I would like to point out that I could not find this very basic information at the page http://www.gnu.org/software/mailman/index.html and think that this should be improved in order to spread the message about the lists. Take care Henrik
