Machighway.com offers free user group hosting, and they give groups
their top of the line Huge account. Did I say it was for free? (saves
you $249.50 a year in hosting.) Found out about the deal through The
MUG Store, but that offer may no longer be posted there. Machighway
also offers a 25% discount on hosting to user group members.

I moved the South Florida Final Cut Pro Users Group web site
soflafcpug.com to Machighway a little over a year ago. The tech
support is good, and you get to talk to real people right away. The
site did crash last month, but it was due to a DNS error on their
end, which their tech caught and fixed right away when I called. The
company is based in Denver, and as far as I know, their tech support
is located there also.
As for a mailing list, I'm using Google Groups, and it's working out
ok. There have been some glitches with the unsubscribe process, but
it's easy to take care of. Best of all, the public archives are
indexed by Google.
Hope this helps.

cheap and gets you a dedicated SQL server.
The nice thing about machighway is you'll be hosted on Mac OS X
sever. The reason this is a good thing - most of the "stuff" you
need to create your web presence is already on your Mac. "Stuff"
like php, apache, python, and, mySQL can be put on your Mac
relatively painlessly. You get to test that everything works then
upload to a server that is using the same.
