I think you've made my (earlier email) point, Sarah.
You are a college student, no? And you are not able to mount your own
debate about the merits of another account to manage?
I don't think your group needs it. And I don't think you need it. (You said
you had plenty.)
All you are able to offer is "...but still a FREE...?" You are much too
enamored by the word "free", I think.
I am sure, at such a place as RIT, that the philosophical concept "there is
no such thing as a free lunch" is discussed in PHIL 1001...take that course.
Who will manage the account? Who will answer the silly email like "I can't
post my 2MB .jpg, can you help?" Who will answer the door when the subpoena
comes that someone posted pornography, or racist slurs, on the "group
website"? The answer: your group's leader, that's who.
There is no such thing as a free email account for a group.
