How and where (on what system) might one go about starting a mailing list. 
I know that I could do it manually -- have people send mail to me and I
would manually forward it out to the list.  How might I do it automatically
-- people post to the list via mail and it is distributed out.  Would this
necessarily require a separate email address for people to mail to (other
than my own, which I might like to get personal mail on)?

What software might enable me to do this (like only forwarding out mail
that has a subject line: "FOR THE LIST" or something to that effect?  What
other options might I have?

Thanks
