At one time groups.io was allowing transfers for no cost.  I am not sure
if that is still the case.  I do recall that above a certain subscriber
base there were charges that applied to some groups I am a member of.

Perhaps my only negative I can lodge against groups.io is that they
insert a text block into the message that breaks cryptographic signed
messages.  Other than that the service has been fine.  A lot of people
do use it through its Web interface and I find its Web interface a good
compromise between an email list and a Web forum.  I certainly prefer it
to Discourse.
