:I've run into problems in the past using Pegasus to manage lists

:list -- or automatically adding them via a filter -- can wipe out the
:entire list if it gets to big (ouch). Thank heavens for back-ups ;-)

This is a more advanced option than running Pegasus:
The same shareware author, David Harris, has a Mail Server, Mercury,
that handles mailing lists. If you just have a dialup connection, there
is a module for delivering under that type of set up.

I'm currently running my list using Mercury. I used to host with
Topica.com, but was dissatisfied with a number of things. It's been
about a month now, since I started running my list on my own. I joined
this list [epub], because the list for List Owners that I used to belong
to at Topica had too many messages specifically related to Topica and
not about list management in general. I'm hoping this will be mostly
about the latter.

Mercury and Pegasus also have mailing lists for support. You can find
them here:

The Pegasus site is here:

There are also Usenet newsgroups for pegasus/mercury support:
comp.mail.pegasus-mail.ms-windows
comp.mail.pegasus-mail.misc
