I wonder if there isn't another solution, I'm not sure about what options Listserv has but we could create a group (relatively hassle free) with yahoo.groups, not to replace this one, but as a means for people to post files, an announcement of the new file could then be posted here to all members and those who want to access the file can do so through the members page using their web browser.  If such an option is acceptable

As far as I know, that is already an option at yahoogroups. Documents and such can be already archived, and that can be set up by the list owner.
