Though there are no shortage of volunteers, I'll throw my hat into the ring as well. > 1. Does your server have the capacity to handle lists this large and > busy? My host can handle the traffic fine, though their mailing list system suggests no more than 10,000 users. I don't know how to implement a search system, however. But my host runs Linux and MySQL and PHP and perhaps someone with more experience than I could code a search system I could install. > 2.

My host is pair.com, which hosts nearly 200K sites and is one of the largest around. I've been hosting with them for 10 years or more. > 4.

Pair uses open source software Mailman 2.1.9 for mailing lists and it sounds quite customizable, though I'll need to research how to use it. -- Marc Zeedar Publisher REALbasic Developer Magazine http://www.rbdeveloper.com _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> REAL Software has decided to consolidate this mailing list with the online Forums.
