What about a stupid, plain old htaccess file?

Yes, that may require keeping not only the domain, but also some webspace.

But we need to find a hoster for the mailing lists and mail forwards anyway, 
and they usually offer that in a bundle with a domain, webspace, email, etc.
So we could get rid of the maintenance of running our own server, keep the 
mail stuff, and the URIs via htaccess.

At my current hoster I pay 2.94 dollars / month for a domain, 5 GB webspace, 5 
GB mailspace AND mailing list & mail forward support.
- that's cheap and sufficient, and I didn't check whether they're the cheapest 
for like 5 years, there may be even cheaper companies nowadays.
