Thanks Jim. There are likely some UVM employees in our circles. Yep, L-Soft looks pretty pricey. Definitely looking for a smaller scale solution. Ymlp.com looks promising.

Hi Ron, To host a list on LIST.UVM.EDU, there needs to be someone from UVM (typically faculty or staff) to sponsor it and act as the primary administrator/editor.� UVM won't host a list without an affiliate to run it. Products: If it has to be LISTSERV, L-SOFT will sell lists on a SaaS basis (this is called "ListPlex") http://www.lsoft.com/products/listplex_pricing.asp�� Less expensive:� https://www.simplelists.com/products.php� starting at $6/month Gratis ...� Google Groups will do mailing lists.� There's also Your mailing list provider (ymlp.com).� You should expect these services to monetize via advertisements in your list.� Note that I only have personal experience with LISTSERV, and Google Groups. Other members of this list may have some other suggestions. Happy hunting, Jim On 7/25/21 11:31 AM, Ron Lawrence wrote: O.K.
