What I've always done is offered special pricing, usually at least 50% off for charitable 503(c) and other 'public service' type groups. It more depended on the resources they required and the amount of hand holding.

All of the Mailman lists I host/admin are provided free of charge, as a value-add to the members of various non-profit groups. Insofar as the actual costs of providing a discussion or announcement list are hard to tease out, the best I could do would be to apportion the total costs of the servers they are on across all the other services I get. The income would be nice to offset my expenses but administering it would be nearly as great as that of adminning the lists themselves. So I treat it as my contribution to good causes.

Also, I have a philosophical/ethical problem with charging for simply providing a FOSS service. I know it's allowed but still...
