    Thanks. I like the fact that you can go to the web page
    and change your options as well. I looked at several
    types of list software and Mailman seemed to be the best.
     The old list uses Majordomo which is good as well but to
    get any of the web features you need to add MajorCool on
    there.

    Mailman was kind of a pain to configure but now that it's
    configured it is very easy to work with.

    The way the archive searching works is that
    www.mail-archive.com is actually subscribed to the list
    and they archive everything. What is nice about that is
    that we will have 2 versions of the archive should
    anything go wrong.

    I am going to atempt to download all of the old archives
    but I don't know if I will be able to make them searchable
    or not. I will try though.
