I prefer YahooGroups for the same reason but their service has been rocky of
late. We lost a whole month of archives on our members business list last
spring. Many of our members have great difficulty managing their
"memberships". Part of this was the change over from egroups to Yahoo and
then from the old Yahoo to the new one that is gearing up for charging for
handling lists.

But can you explain what newsgroups are? And channels? I never got my head
around newsgroups and now I have channels popping up everywhere.

In case you were in doubt, this is highly related to cohousing because email
has been highly instrumental in developing cohousing communities, developing
them faster, and allowing people to participate and join groups when they
are geographically distant, contributing to greater diversity.

Thanks,

Sharon
