As a matter of fact, this is what I > am doing right now. I wanted to do that too, but had to learn then, that our local student smtp-server allows only from adresses from the local student domain. Of course it also isn't possible to use another smtp-server... Fortunately I can ssh out to another box and do smtp from there, but thats not possible for everyone. That said, it realy doesn't apply to this list, as the only one who has to send things here is the archive maintenance software as Josip Rodin pointed out in another mail.
