People who had to 'SERVE [log in to unmask] OFF' are invited to also 'QUIET SERVE [log in to unmask] OFF' (mind the case!). I don't know all the details of this name change (Olivier would, but he's on holidays until monday), basically, this MINT thing is a kind of "general CERN gateway" that performs mail conversion from/to a large number of protocols, allowing CERN users to talk to each other regardless of racial and religious considerations. It used to be an 11/750 (or 780, I don't remember), and was so overloaded that it sometimes didn't manage to finish the "check everything is ok" process started every day at midnight in 24h, with the result that the system would crash after a couple weeks with "maximum number of processes exceeded" :-) DXMINT is a new incarnation of MINT running on a MicroVAX, which doesn't suffer from these problems; I don't know if the 'MINT.CERN.CH' name still exists, nor do I know whether 'DXMINT' is a permanent name, but I would advise serving both of them off.
