The keyword is "might". You need >to decide for yourself if the value of your time maintaining your server >and the cost of Internet service for the server is worthwhile. I have a 24 hr connection, and I'm currently running a very basic list server as part of the email server software, but I find it doesn't have the features I need. The number of posts at this point is very low and time is not a factor, so my only need is to know if I can run Listserv on a machine on the LAN that is not directly connected to the net. Thanks.
