Re:How to close a mailing list?

I'd like to close a mailing list and have all posters receive a message with a subject like "This mailing list has moved to foo@bar.com" and a more expansive explanation in the body, followed by the body of their message.

Why use SmartList for this at all? Close down the list, and set up a simple vacation message off of the aliases. (Or even send a 500-level error with the error message, "This list moved to foo@bar") Seems to me using SmartList for this is serious overkill. Charlie
