OK, so is there anything I need to do to have the SMTP server recognize,
say, [EMAIL PROTECTED] ... assuming the domain is already configured
in/with iMS?

Normally, are all account information just stored in a table, and the
various templates -- such as provided with FusionMail -- just checks whether
there is account by that name under that domain and then accepts or bounces
the e-mail?

So, when I create a list with an address of [EMAIL PROTECTED] ... I can do
one or more of the following ...

        -- insert the list info in the list_info table
                ++ have templates that then check incoming e-mail against
this table
        -- insert the list address in the POPs table used by FusionMail
                ++ have FusionMail, or copy the FusionMail templates, accept
or reject this incoming mail
        -- If the mail is accepted, insert into the table for
storing/archiving the mail, then generate an e-mail with that message to all
the list subscribers.
