ListServ from LSOFT.COM is a good product. You set it up on it's own machine and subdomain (lists.Sanantonio.gov) and let it chug.
One of the BETTER qualities of this product is that you can tune it so that a domain only gets one message for the number of people subscribed, rather than one message per recipient. (i.e. twenty users are listed at BELLSOUTH.NET.. Only one message gets sent to BELLSOUTH.NET) You can also chunk the traffic so that you don't flood out your ISP.

My question is has anyone received similar requests and how were they handled? The division head assures me that this list will be maintained and kept up to date and users who request to be removed from the list will be, they currently outsource this project and want to bring it in-house to save money. I believe in the long run this will cause more problems than the savings will add up to, any suggestions would be appreciated.
