I don't understand something. Most any IT Dept will have an archived version of the files. Are you sure they don't? Once that is solved, then you can find a new home.  A generation of historical information is tough to lose just so casually.

Jumping in to share my experience. We explored the possibility of using Google Groups when we unexpectedly lost access to our listserv via an academia host as well. However, it didn't fit our needs and we needed a solution that was free and up and running in 72 hours. I had quickly looked at it but saw It had feature limitations such as number of subscribers and emails sent and would require us to migrate domain services for email hosting. This was a year ago when I explored this possibility; it does seem they expanded their import/emails capacities but not sure about costs associated with it. https://support.google.com/a/answer/6099642?hl=en 

Our solution was to migrate to MailChimp's free services and sending out emails weekly in a digest/newsletter format and have been doing this for free (albeit a bit more time on my end for content editing). Not the most ideal solution but our readers enjoyed the facelift and it's working for us for the last 12 or so months.
