I would suggest Groups.io. Most all reflectors have migrated to this
platform. Its free to a certain extent.  But I believe you may be able to
migrate the archived messages to it as well. Not sure though.   But it's a
relatively simple platform which will do what you need it to do. That is,
act as a reflector.  Plus it has a very good search function to access the
archived messages. I'm not sure how much of the old messages apply to the
current versions of DXSpider. Something to consider perhaps.
