UCD uses LSoft Listserv, too.  The annual cost is very small when compared to the functionality and ease of use -- 
especially with regards to the web management interface, which is very slick.

To be pedantic, "listserv" refers itself to a specific software package.
:)  But perhaps it's been Kleenexed or Xeroxed.  :)

I have the LSoft 20th anniversary shirt that says 'There is only one LISTSERV'.
Eric Thomas told me they paid for the shirts out of their "trademark protection"
budget, not their "advertising" budget - the term hasn't gone generic yet.

The scary part is I've been working with it long enough to know *why* it was called the 'Revised' Listserv 2 decades 
plus ago. ;)

Yes, we run the LSoft software.  8,441 lists defined at the moment.
