Once you have mail working (sendmail + fetchmail as appropriate) fetch
majordomo (www.greatcircle.com) and install and configure it :-)

It's nearly two years since I set it up so I can't remember the
specifics. I followed the Readme's, examples etc and got it working with
only a little difficulty. Suggest that you have a go and then come back
and ask if you have specific questions/difficulties.

Try setting up a test list and then use a hotmail account to test
subscribing/unsubscribing/posting etc.
