java-linux is not a high-bandwidth mailing-list.
I suggest looking at your configuration. I can imagine that if your system
transmits every email individually that your system sees a log of outgoing
traffic. Note that your IAP also sees this same traffic. If you configure
your sendmail to use your IAP's system as a mail relay, your outgoing mail
traffic will diminish enormously at little cost to your IAP.
The best thing from your pint of view is that the improvement will be
immediate: it can be achieved today (yesterday my time).
