[Lnc-business] Why moving the list to Google is a bad idea

[Daniel Fishman]

What I am proposing is to move the entire mail service for lists to a
google group -- not a redirection, reflector or anything else. The current
system requires an engineer to fix things when they break. The new system
will not. I believe in turnkey everything that you can. Groups are also
optimized for both mobile and desktop users.
