Request for list host

There are currently 12 lists for pregnant women who are due in a particular
month.  These lists are currently being hosted by a site using majordomo
software.  Not only is the current site unstable, but it also has _no_
listowner support for problems and an extreme amount of down time.

Each one of the 12 lists would average 150 members and 100-125 message per
day.  Initially, I would be a co-owner of each list and train all the new
owners before letting them run the lists alone.  Each list would eventually
have a different listowner, however I would be sure that each listowner is
familiar with the software and how to use it.

The purpose of these lists is to allow interaction with ladies who are
currently pregnant and due in the same month.  Each list is a support
network for its members, allowing them to gain insight and information
about being pregnant.  The women on these list exchange pregnancy and
birthing information, labor stories, emotional support, as well as "real"
information about many subject including but not limited to "FDA Alerts"
for baby products and recalls.
