If they don't meet our U Maine System guidelines, I usually send people
to EASE (http://www.lsoft.com/products/default.asp?item=ease) and Yahoo
Groups (http://groups.yahoo.com/).  Most found Yahoo Groups much slicker
(for their simple, beginner clients), but can't stand the ads (or don't
trust Yahoo to keep their client addresses private).  Most found the
modest EASE costs too much, fwiw.

I don't ever recall (in about 15 years) anyone ever actually wanting to
run a mailing list site ... aside from those that did it with an e-mail
program distribution list ... and wondered why it was so hard. ;-)

cheers, wayne
