Perhaps I am speaking for myself, and the good Lord knows I don't have a
lot of dollars looking to spend themselves on something. That said, I
think it's reasonable for the Porch to offer some financial support in
consideration of the ongoing maintenance of the mailing list.
Am I alone in this?

Thanks. Actually, I'm not opposed to being the long term maintainer
of the List on my server, but never having managed a list this large
(I've managed Mailman lists with around 50 users in the past), I
wanted to leave myself a little wiggle room should it turn out to be
much more than I was expecting. So I think I'd characterize my server
as a probable long-term home, but certainly a stopgap, should it turn
out to be too much for me to handle.
I'm also not opposed to using a Mailman hosting service like one of
the ones you found, but I think that'd be a backup solution to having
an interested member (like me) host it.
Cheers,
Chris
