Due to the large number of free or inexpensive Internet communication services, ibiblio has stopped accepting new email lists. Below are a few alternatives. Some behave much like an email list. However, a different kind of application may be closer to what you need.
- Google groups Free.
A Google group looks and smells like an email list. They’re easy to manage, especially through the free version of a Google apps account.http://groups.google.com/
- Yahoo groups Free.
Similar to Google groups, with slightly different features.http://groups.yahoo.com/
- iContact Free up to 500 subscribers.
