My last VPS plan had Mailman as part of the Plesk interface. But it was a cheap plan and the provider limited the server to sending 1,000 emails per day to prevent spam. I think a specialist Mailman host would be better for a list of this size as you'd otherwise spend that $600 a year on paracetamol having to administer the server AND the list. I mentioned Google Groups the other day but I don't know if that would be a workable alternative. I moved a small mailing list to it recently after I changed hosting providers and couldn't be bothered with email setups.
