Mailman can be installed under Solaris in your own virtual domain on your web host, but it requires (probably root) access to the shell on the server to do it and to integrate it with the web server and MTA on the host. I.e. IgLou will probably have to do it for you and will probably charge you for the installation and maybe for monthly use as well.
