How much are people wedded to the "vanagon.com" domain?  One option that
would be technically painless would be to start a new domain, dump the
current subscriber list into some more modern list management system
such as Mailman, and not look back.

This is pretty much what happened with the Mercedes-oriented mail lists
at mbz.org -- folks got tired of endless technical problems, and finally
another list member founded his own list and everyone moved.

The vanagon.com name is cool, I admit, but is it worth these headaches?
