My, our paranoia runs deep. Groveling to Topica? I don't recall having to
grovel in order to run a mailing list there. Putting Lyris in with free
hosting services? Apples and oranges; Lyris is a list server, not a hosting
service. (Lyris.NET is a hosting service, running on several Lyris servers,
but it's not free, and it's certainly not in the same category as Topica
and/or eGroups.)
Nothing wrong with setting up one's own server; I think it's a great idea.
I run a couple of my own, as well as running lists on Topica and Lyris.net.
And a non-disclaimer (a claimer?): I am a technical advisor to Topica, and
also work pretty closely with Lyris Technologies -- which is why I am
steering clear of endorsing either of those services in this message. I
just want to clear up some of the FUD that seems to be building here.
Enjoy ...
