Only problem, My host runs MajorDomo. I cannot afford LSofts monthly fee for 300 members. I would love to switch to LSoft ListServ, if someone would only host my list for free. The list is VERY hepfull. The user did caulm down, but one off topic post and he will be off the wall again. I am losing members everyday. I am in the middle of writing all the users manually (exept him), and if he goes off again I will have to close the list and find a new host. (I know one who modified Majordomo, but I like that feture you listed for ListServ. I am a college student and $50 a month is out of the question.)
