Try talking with the folks at, for example, LinuxWebHost (http://linuxwebhost.com). For $15 or $20 per month, they can set you up with 10 or 20 mailing lists, plus plenty of storage and web space for a forum. Many lists would allow people to subscribe to only the topics they were interested in, and you could have one for "all topics", where everything would be combined. Most likely they would allow Euphoria scripts in your cgi-bin to process & sort the incoming mails.

(see above) The actual mail handing does not need to be done by Euphoria, but the programs which capture the messages and create a web interface should be. Anything else makes Euphoria look bad.
