Yeah, after setting this up way back in Nov 1999 to have it killed off
now (expiry Jan 1, 2026) is tiresome.

/Over time, the free PairList mailing list program (based on GNU
Mailman) has become unreliable as most mail hosts now require strict
email validation standards (SPF, DKIM, DMARC). PairList cannot support
these features, causing messages to be delayed, marked as spam, or
rejected. Because of this declining reliability, we believe the service
no longer meets our standards and will be discontinued./

/PairList has served our users well for many years. While we are sad to
retire it, we are exploring a more reliable replacement service for the
future./

We are currently under Mailman 2.1.39

I'm not sure if I'd want to be under Googlegroups - they mine
everything...the less I give them the happier I am.

We have 172 members, so groups.io would want $220USD/year.
