Webserver on Apache?
Natural Choice, I feel.

Great !!
The name is apt.

On the site, we can also have gif's showing 'Powered by Redhat Linux' and
'Powered by Apache'. The respective s/w have these along with them.

If Asokan's generosity could be extended little further, we can have
individual id's @ilugc.org, where a mapping has to be provided for each
user to their primary email-id. Or at least, say users@xxxxxxxxx can
point to ilugc@xxxxxxxxx This can be done using sendmail.
sendmail.org has more details on this 'virtual domain emails'. (We can
even have webspace for a web-based bulletin board where users can post
articles and respond to them - Hypernews is a good option for this). All
depends on whether Asokan will be able to provide space for these addl
features too. 

Count on us for any help in setting up the web-server.
