You might want to check out www.freelists.org.  I've run several mailing
lists on www.freelists.org for a couple of years, but they're all small
potatoes compared to this list.

The admin functions can be done via a web interface or E-mail.  Burned-out
administrators can even turn on the MYOPTIC flag and not see the bounced
E-mail. :-)  You might want to check them out to see if PICList qualifies.

I checked out several options, including Yahoo, before I chose Freelists.
Apart from running the hosting system myself, I couldn't find another list
server that allowed me as much flexibility.
