I've been using the free Yahoo Groups for years now and they're very nice for casual stuff. Even though you have to enter your Yahoo password to get into most of your group's page, I still somehow don't feel like it's very secure.

Are there any other free group services out there that are more secure? Or can anyone speak to Yahoo's security? Maybe it's sufficient.

Well, how soon do you need this? I'm currently coding something along those lines, although since I'm still learning webobjects it's taking a while.

I guess when I'm done I could share the source... then you could run it on your own server and be as secure as you want

What the nerd community most often fail to realize is that all features aren't equal. A well implemented and well integrated feature in a convenient interface is worth way more than the same feature implemented crappy, or accessed through a annoying interface.
