To prevent LISTSERV from using the LISTSERV backbone to distribute messages
from your list, add the following statement to your list configuration:

	Mail-Via= Direct

This will force LISTSERV to use SMTP for all messages.

If your list is very large and/or very busy, you should discuss this change
with your LISTSERV administrator before you make it, to ensure that it will
not adversely affect other lists or services at your site.

For additional information about the Mail-Via= statement, see
