Network Solutions may be their mail host, but I strongly doubt their mailing list and mailing software exists on Network Solutions' servers. (And would you
want it to?)
On the *nix boxes I administered, email to/from was possible, but "mailhost" was an upstream Exchange Server. The Solaris boxes forwarded outgoing mail to it, and got incoming mail from it.
I think that's what Mobi is doing with NS. NS is mailhost, and actually sends/receives mail forwarded from/to the Mobi server. But the user list is
on the Mobi server, so...
