I know my EPSON list and some others with similar foci would move as well..

So, there WOULD be a considerable number of bodies involved in moving to

Keith,

The best thing we found was SmartGroups which duplicates all of the features
that Yahoo offers. Unfortunately it is a UK outfit and I am guessing that
there are little or no US based servers so the message delivery was in terms
of hours and days.

I am not adverse to moving if we can keep all of the same features, transfer
all the messages in the archive, and I can do it relatively painlessly in
terms of time.
