Melissa,

I'm sending this to the list so that anyone potentially interested
in hosting this list can read it.

Check out http//:www.egroups.com.  This is a free mailing list
hosting site.  I have hosted a list there and I'm on a couple of
lists.  It is an excellent site.  They like large lists; indeed
they'll pay you to move a list this large over there.  The only cost
is a couple line text ad tagged onto the end of each message. 
Innocuous and easily ignored.
