We have a listserv server containing about 500 lists. Up to now the server forwarded the outgoing mails to the central mailhost of our research centre. Now there are some problems with this mailserver and we are thinking about sending the outgoing mails directly using the local sendmail of the server. I am interested to know what is the usual method on other listserv servers. Do you send the emails directly with sendmail or do you forward them to a mailserver? Of what do we have to take account when we send the outgoing emails directly and which problems could there be? Thank you very much for any help!
