I have heard both good and bad about Onelist, but the biggest negative I
have heard is the inclusion of advertising with the mailings. :) I hate
advertising. :)
I run a couple of other lists, and have decided to actually pay a few
dollars and go with a commercial service. I use Lsoft's service (which
you can read about at http://www.lsoft.com/). My lists are small and
non-commercial (the largest list being around 80 subscribers) and I
use their "Ease HOME" service ... which is intended for "non-commercial
and hobby" use. Cost is $15/month for up to 100 subscribers. This
particular level of service (i.e. non-commercial/home/hobby use) can
accomidate up to 1,000 subscribers with pre-published price schedules
for up to 300 subscribers. Beyond that they'll quote prices based on
the type of list and it's traffic.
Their service is superb. Delivery times are excellent. The "HOME" level
of service is intended to be a "self-supported" situation, but you are
automatically subscribed to a list of list-owners and the "group support"
that comes from this collection of list-owners is actually quite good.
No, I don't work for Lsoft. No, I don't get a kickback. :) I'm just a
very satisfied list-owner who uses their services.
