We are forming our Users' Group (as yet unnamed) for Celerity Computing
users.  One of the things we would like to see implemented is a news
group or mailing list.  One of our customer sites has volunteered; I
offered to get some information for them.  So...

   I assume it is desirable to start with a mailing list.  Is this true?

   Can a new vendor-oriented newsgroup be started on the ARPA side of the
   net-world, and gatewayed into USENET?  Should this be addressed after
   a satisfactory startup of a mailing list?  (The site in question is 
   an internet system.)

   Is there any software around for automating list management and
   forwarding on a 4.2 system such as ours?

   Are there any suggestions any list moderators out there have for
   our customer?

Thank you.  Please reply via E-mail; addresses follow.  If anyone else
is interested in the replies, please mail to me, and I will forward or
post.
