suggestions for disaster recovery website - outsourced / hosted?

I'm reviewing a DRP (disaster recovery plan). The company wants to use

Yahoo groups for their emergency website. I know this might not be the
expertise for this MS-centric group, but I figured why not try. :)
Basically I wanted to know,


1. Does anyone know when do yahoo accounts expire... that would be bad
if after a disaster, people cannot get in because they did not use
their yahoo email for a year :)

2. Any suggestions for non-Yahoo Groups type of sites (pay is fine)
that have threaded discussions, based on some authentication (username
& pwd) ? We don't want something tied in to the domain of the
company... since the network may be down in event of a diaster :)

With the cost of another ISP hosting for you being so low, why even think of
a environment whereby there is no SLA for business delivery.
