Would it be possible to set up an *easily shared* email address or forum

Essentially it would have to be very *easy* for people to *set up* and
operate, since many of the older members are not very versatile on their
PCs.

Members could then chip in and share helpful suggestions about plants
and the allotment with others. Especially useful since some of the
oldies live fairly isolated lives, living by themselves.

i did think of say a hotmail address we could all share, but the jokers
in the group could step in and alter settings; could they not?

Grateful for any suggestios on an 'easy to set up' solution.

I don;t think you should share the same email address, yuo might be able to do something using google, where everyone has their own google email address and you can share documents via google drive I have it set up at work so students can have their own ordersheets (spreadsheet) they add what they want and I order it. I can share a document with any or all of them, I can give them just read or read and write privileges. They would still have to be able to use email and click on links and the usual stuff though. More trouble than sticking a post-it not on the side of a shed, which might eb a easier option.
