Pros: ease of use; adjustable settings for mail load; security features Cons: poor support and constant downtime makes the service unreliable.
Yahoo! Groups took over eGroups in August of last year and since that time, the service has never been the same. Many users were excited when Yahoo announced that they would be taking over the service and upgrading it to offer even more features....

Pros: More Reliable Than the US Postal Service Cons: Can Become Annoying By Chatters
My experience with Egroups has been a short, annoying one to date. The second Egroup (I’ll call it Group B) I was invited to join is fun to interact with, and I do not feel annoyed with every email I receive. The first group (I’ll call it Group A) I...

Pros: New reviews at your fingertips, New friends Cons: Tons of mail. (Not really a con) :)
Ten days ago a fellow Epinionator introduced me to Egroups. He told me it would really increase the number of hits on my reviews and subsequently the amount of my eroyalties. I thought I would give them a try.
With great anticipation I joined...

Pros: a list for everyone, various options for receiving posts, Cons: some original emails seem to get delayed in the shuffle, viruses tend to run rampant,
I love to get email. And through Egroups I was able to find plenty of lists that generate a ton of mail. I've been a member of numerous groups, from a group of old AOL members to a group of retail employees to a group of pregnant women (now mommies like...

Pros: Brings like minded people together, Service is free, service is fast, multi-language capability, setup your own group in minutes, Easy to use Cons: Subject to E-Mail abuse if not managed properly, some of you might not like the banner adverts.
This epinion is all about the wonderful service being operated by a web based service called http://www.egroups.com. The service aims to be one of the largest communities on the Internet and it specialises in growing by bringing people of common...

Pros: Flexible, Powerful Cons: Advertisements in every e-mail
E-Groups is perhaps the most useful service that I have found on the Internet. Because of eGroups, I no longer send e-mail to a large group of friends, etc – I use eGroups instead. I have several types of groups that I manage.
Types of...

Pros: many different groups to choose from Cons: occasional downtime =)
I am writing this opinion in response to the one recently written by serecorde11. I have been a very active member of e-groups, including list ownership and moderation, for nearly seven months, and I have to disagree with the opinion she had written...

Pros: Multiple delivery methods, prompt delivery, easy-to-manage forums and accounts Cons: None
This review of eGroups is the second one I've written today on methods of electronic communication -- maybe I should become some sort of counselor or something. Or perhaps not. At any rate, the topic at hand is eGroups, one of the premier companies...

Pros: support, making friends Cons: arguments can arise
I have been a member of egroups for a couple of years among other such groups. (one list which has now merged with e-groups, Topica and The Globe)
It can be a great way to meet and chat with people that share the same interests. It is like...

Pros: Great for keeping in touch Cons: Takes a little to understand everything
The family connection
Besides being a great program to join people with like interest together for communication, it is also great for a family to correspond with each other. Each member of the family is kept inform about all the messages...

Pros: easy to use,set up and free Cons: advertisements
I found egroups in August of 1999 when I became addicted to Hard Rock Cafe pin collecting. I found out through a website that there was a group on there that allowed people to communicate and trade online. It was amazing. At the time there were 300...

Pros: Reasonably stable interface. Good features. Lists. Files. Chat. Polls. Cons: A bit slow on the web interface.
Egroups offers free mailing list hosting, along with file storage, and polls, and chat, and calendars.
I had originally given egroups 1 star. However because they recently decided to listen to their customers & move the top placed ads in...

Pros: Great way to meet others with similar interests, free Cons: May have limited use for webtv users
I don't remember how I first happened upon the egroups website (formerly called onelist), but I have found a new internet home. Well, after epinions of course.
I first signed up with egroups in January, and they make it very easy. Like many...

Pros: Sense of community, Free Cons: None
Thirty years ago, everyone knew everyone else in their neighborhood. People were more close-knit. Now you're lucky to know your neighbor, but sites like eGroups are working to change that. Being a part of eGroups is being a part of a community. You...
