We're looking at going to IMail v6.x from Netscape Messaging Server.
 
I have not been able to find information on how IMail handles bounced messages.  In NMS 3.6, the postmaster will receive a form-by-email to either delete, send back or re-submit (to a different email address).  Thus, I, as postmaster get to forward a message that came in for [EMAIL PROTECTED], which should go to [EMAIL PROTECTED].  How does IMail handle this?  I am aware of the [EMAIL PROTECTED] address, but that would mean all email not correctly addressed would come to me -- would this mean it just would need manually routing?  Or is it such that all messages incorrectly submitted are just bounced to the users - that wouldn't be such a bad thing - if you dial a phone number that is incorrect, you don't get through - why should email?? :)
 
I heard a little rumbling on the use of IMail as a list-server.  While, we do use WebBoard as our discussion board and listserve, we have the need to just set up large groups of people - be it internal employees or external organizations (>100 users).  It appears in documentation that groups are limited to 50 users and that we would have to use listserves.  Is this correct?  
 
How does IMail handle those addresses that are not found to be correct (or have become incorrect by way of email address no longer being acceptable) in a list-serve database?
 
Lastly, we host two domains on our NMS mail server at the same IP address.  How does IMail work?  We can supply another IP for the second domain if required.
 
Does anyone have a support contract?  If so, how helpful are the folks at tech support under conditions of having a support agreement?
