Hello all
Following my question about a web based mailing list for Linux, here is
a summary of results.
First of all I would like to say thank you for your ideas. I contacted
the Lyris site . They inform me that within a couple of months they will
have a Linux compatible web based mailing list.
I also learned from your mail that there are alternatives to web based
mailing lists. For example bulletin boards, Matts scripts, etc. So here
are the responses

>From the Lyris company
> When do you think that Lyris will be available for Linux?

We are working on it now and hope to have it ready in the next
couple months.  To be informed of when it's available please join
our announcement list. Send a blank message to:

join-unix-announce@clio.lyris.net

.... a very nice, free web-based discussion group system called
Egroups.  Go to http://www.egroups.com

I use http://coollist.com/
there is nothing to download as it is all done on-line and its pretty
reliable-it can be one way only or all letters going to all
participants,
moderated or unmoderated.

I'm not familiar with the "Ed tech classes" you refer to ... but
I wonder if webboard would be helpful to you. I run it at
http://www.cs.unca.edu/~davidson/graffiti/


You are welcome to experiment with posting on the graffiti
board. It threads posts using indentation and allows for
hyperlinking. This script has a nice companion script for
"administrative" purposes, allowing me to delete messages
selectively.

Webboard is at Matt's script archive
http://worldwidemart.com/scripts/

I think that maybe what you want isn't a LISTSERV but a bulletin board.
There is a good one, easily configureable, at Matt's Script Archive
http://www.worldwidemart.com/scripts/ called WWWBoard.

Haven't used it myself, but ran across Web Site Post Office which will
let
you run a free listserv off of their site with a web interface. We've
used a
related service, Web Site Garage and have been pleased with it.
