Sorry about that.  I'm just entering the listserver realm and am not
thouroughly informed.  The O'Reilly book "Managing Internet Information
Services" (excellent resource!) talks about Majordomo and ListProcessor.
I checked out their dis/advantages and thought of the two I would prefer
ListProcessor.
 
So it sounds like LISTSERV is a third possibility.  Anyone want to sell me
on it?  My only mandatory requirements are that it be free and have the
cabability to digest daily messages and send them all in a nightly batch.
 
I just got my hands on the mail/list-admin/software-faq (thank you, Norm
Aleks) which I suspect will give me more information as to making a
choice.
