Not any more than others have done years ago. Getting to >99.9% delivery for a mailinglist is not difficult. Unless you use it to manage your newsletter distribution. The trick is: Do not force people onto your mailinglist. Make it a list were most people are tech-savy (helps a lot to keep problems down and if there are any, you get usefull reports) and make sure nobody is using yahoo. Oh and weed out dead addresses early... For any mailinglist that runs more than a couple of weeks, you'll have somewhere between 0.1% and 1% dead addresses per month. The rest is really just configuring your MTA correctly and keeping an eye on it.
