Right now I recieve messages from both lists in the same inbox. The
client filters on "[EVTECH]" in the title
I have to look to see which ones it came form.
Like I said before, leave them both up. Listen to both and send to
whatever one is up.
A poor mans replication. As far as I know there is no archive so syncing
them is completely un-necessary :-)
Right now if everyone sends to the old list, that is all we will get.
If it goes down, we send to the other list and viola, we all suddenly
get messages from that one.
We just tested this for a week ;-)
