The TAMU system for mailing lists isn't technically Gerry's. The University
hosts a LISTSERV server that apparently is open to anyone. I recall years
ago there was a specific policy about who was allowed to have a list on it,
but I can't see that anywhere except one place that says the primary list
owner's email should be linked to the official university email account
(which is no problem for Gerry.)

http://listserv.tamu.edu/

This LISTSERV hosts thousands of lists and would not go down for any length
of time without immediate action.
