[ale] slightly OT: what would you use to manage email forwarding lists for a non-profit?

[ale_nospam at fayettedigital.com (Jim Lynch)]

Look at Mailjet, Mailgun or Mailchimp.? All have free versions. Mailgun 
gives you 10,000 free emails a month.? I don't know about Mailchimp.

I think Mailjet gives you 5,000 free, but don't quote me on that.

Jim.
