The reason I ask is that my local train club does its internal communications by
email, and it is quite a burden on my inbox. Plus the messages are all mixed in
with spam and other messages, etc. I know I can do filtering and stuff, but I'd

does allow you to run votes, store files, and manage a calander...  in
