Well, I am prejudiced of course, but LISTSERV(R) is a far better list
manager pgm than majordomo.  Like the difference between walking across
Nevada on foot and driving I-80 in an airconditioned car.

I suggest you don't need to own your onw copy of LISTSERV, but just use the
EASE list hosting services at Lsoft.  see  http://www.lsoft.com  or contact
[log in to unmask]   It's not free, but they take care of all the service
issues, you just have to operate as list owner, issue necessary
instructions, and of course do the moderating.  You'll save more money and
headaches in the long run.
