First, I would like to thank everyone for their willingness to help me with 
my questions. It was a pleasure to meet those of you who were at last 
night's meeting.

I've gotten a bit of direction regarding my email server question from 
talking to several of you last night. My problem is really threefold and 
here's where I am at present.


   1. I need to relocate our internal mailing list. Someone on the list 
   recommended dotList (http://www.mailmanhost.com). After looking into it I 
   think the service is cheap enough to consider going that route so I'm 
   working toward that end.
   2. Our PowerSchool server occasionally violates our email provider's 
   AUP. This isn't quite like an electronic newsletter because each of the 
   outgoing emails are progress reports on a per student, per class basis 
   detailing assignments and student perform ants for the parents. Someone 
   recommended using an email relay service rather than trying to maintain 
   that myself. If anyone has recommendations I am all ears.
   3. I'm still thinking I need to set up a small email server here to 
   handle those automated emails generated by our servers that report on 
   backups and nightly maintenance. Our email provider has gotten very good 
   about not allowing them through even though they only go to one or two 
   people. I think it's because in some places I cannot enter all the required 
   authentication information to send an email. If I can get the other two 
   parts of my problem handled externally I just need something very simple to 
   do what I'm looking for here.
