I'm on 5 different lists thru onelist and get messages within 5 minutes of 
them being sent (Judged by how long it takes before I see my 
posts).  Onelist has the option of a moderated list, where every post sits 
on the admins mailbox to be examined before it's sent... Might see of the 
list your on is set up that way....

We were suggesting onelist as a temporary solution until a permanent home 
could be found.  I'd rather have my email coming from this list with a 
small ad at the bottom and maybe even slow than no list for the next month 
or so until a permanent solution can be found.



A private newsgroup isn't private.  They get spammed as bad as the public 
newsgroups.
one spam on this list sent everyone into an uproar a month or so 
ago...  How would 20-30 a day make the list feel?
Onelist is about the best public option around... With the choice of 
moderated or unmoderated, open or closed (have to verify new subscribers or 
ont) and built in archiving.  Unlimited bandwidth helps as 
well!  Especially since it is FREE.
Again, this was suggested as a temporary stepping stone until a permanent 
solution get's put into place.  Last we heard was we had to be off this 
server by Dec. 1 which is Wednesday!
