 I run a mailing list which uses distribute (the name of the software program)
to alias my list name to the file which contains the mailing addresses. I
am not sysadmin so I don't know much about version of sendmail etc. I was
wondering though if there is any benefit to be gained from ordering the
mailing list by domain so that connections can be opened in groups.

Also, I have a large mailing list. Is there a way to do this automatically,
rather than sorting through them by hand?

Please reply by email (feel free to post, but I'd appreciate responses sent
my way as well)...

Thanks,

STeve
