Well, I think we're allowed to discuss some general listowning topics here... <grin> I needed to set up a moderated list for about 1000 people; I've been running it pretty much manually from PMDF Mailserv for almost two years, and am sick to death of the overhead. Can't afford Listerv(tm) and don't have a place to install it; and the parent company has decided that their promise of Listserv(tm) resources is no longer valid, the bums. So, today I set up a moderated list via http://www.makelist.com ([log in to unmask]). Well, it ain't Listserv(tm), but it does allow me to approve all subscriptions (the list is limited to members of a parent organization) and approve all postings (it's an announcement list - only a handful of people are allowed to post to it). Only subscribers can view the archives (there's a login and authentication process). The setup was done with forms and I found it very easy to follow. And so far (with a test population) it seems to work quite well. I'd rather have Listserv(tm)...who wouldn't? But it's a bearable alternative. Jae Walker owner of too many lists for her own sanity...
