The decent free (as in zero cost) ones are sympa, listar, mailman and mj 1
and mj2.
Here are /my/ impressions on these:
Sympa: Most of the documentation, at least when I played around with it, is
in french.
listar: I don't remember exactly what I didn't like about it. I think its
web interface was broken when I tried it.
mailman: One word - python.
mj1: The workhorse of mailing list management. Pain in the ass to install
and run. The beauty of it is it works.
mj2: Rewritten from ground up. MIME aware. Includes code contribution by
yours truly ;-). Problem is it is still in beta and not too widely known.
