Hello list, I am seeking an accessible, free, and publicly available host
for an email discussion list. We would like to limit membership to the group
in order to keep the discussion focused on relevant topics. Does anyone have
any suggestions?
TIA,
Will Miller

Do the crickets mean that no one knows of a publicly available discussion
list host with an accessible interface? Or is the question unworthy or
inappropriate? Maybe I am missing something...

I know I can't think of any natively accessible list host. I know that
I've made MANY requests and provided documentation to the mailman
developers in hopes that they make their product (which I believe is the
most popular out there) accessible.
If you're comfortable with coding, it's not too overly difficult to modify
the templates and Python code of mailman to implement accessibility - for
the most part form labels.
