Eric,

I don't know about Alabanza, but Dreamhost.com offers free Mailman lists with 
all their Web hosting accounts and accounts start at US$9.95/month. Have not 
tried them because I am trying to set up Mailman to serve lists from my home 
server over my DSL connection. I have never even set up an MTA before though 
(I am trying Postfix). So if I cannot hit the golf ball I will try Dreamhost.

I think your answer is you need root access to install Mailman because you 
need to be able to creat a Mailman group and user. If your Web host has 
Mailman set up for you or is willing to set it up for you, then you can do 
it. If they wont do it, switch hosts. (Someone say so if I'm wrong.)
