I'd second Mailman. I'm still here because I loved Majordomo and
knew it pretty well at one time, but I moved all of my mailing lists
to Mailman 5 or 6 years ago. At the time, I looked at MJ2 as part of
my evaluation, but it's stalled state of development and the real
sense of 'unfinished' I got was offputting.  Mailman's
well-supported, has a very active community and is currently
undergoing a major update cycle.
