While I'm no world authority on mail lists, I did start one 9 years ago and ran it on software on my own Mac for 5 years. First on freeware (Macjordomo) and then on professional quality software (LetterRip). Eventually, lack of a static IP and problems with authentication made things too difficult and I switched over to Yahoo. What you're talking about may be possible but _really_ sounds complicated. Managing mail lists can be a tough job - personalities can conflict, etc., etc. "A couple hundred lists" --- arghhhh! I think someone suggested a bulletin board. I used <http:// www.bulletinboards.com> for several years. Tom Miller ..................................................
